Mainstay Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Working on next skin. Still in early fase so long way to go but wanted to share a bit already.
LcSummers Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Great cat! I love your skins. Do you plan to make brown 4 of JG26 and blue 15 from JG301 based at Straubing? Edited August 24, 2014 by LcSummers

Mainstay Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 Little update.... Still a long way to go :)

derekb1948 Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 It looks superb -and probably one of the most complicated types of colour-scheme to duplicate. I very much look forward to "flying" it in the near future! Thanks for the preview.
upupandaway Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 That looks very promising. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Deedle, deedle!
Mainstay Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 Little update im about 50% done now after colour picking and finetuning im working on weathering till im satisfied. Can take a while.....
Blaze Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 That weathering is beautiful Mainstay! If I have to nitpick it would be that the insignia on the wings looks a little too fresh and pop out against the rest of the paint which is more dull. Otherwise fantastic work! i7 7700K | 32GB RAM | GTX 1080Ti | Rift CV1 | TM Warthog | Win 10 "There will always be people with a false sense of entitlement.

wolfstriked Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 And another sweet looking skin! Love the camo look of tail section! "Its easy,place the pipper on target and bombs away." :pilotfly: i7-8700k/GTX 1080ti/VKB-GladiatorPRO/VKB-T-rudder Pedals/Saitek X55 throttle
JST Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Never liked excessive paint chipping, but the camo scheme is definitely fantastic. My skins/liveries for Fw 190 D-9 and Bf 109 K-4: My blog or Forums. Open for requests as well. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Maler Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Cool. :thumbup: By the way as an example of extreme weathering, you can see one of my first skins of p-51d USSR old. "Screw you guys, i'm going home."
rrohde Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Awesome sauce! :) PC: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | MSI Suprim GeForce 3090 TI | ASUS Prime X570-P | 128GB DDR4 3600 RAM | 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD | Win10 Pro 64bit Gear: HP Reverb G2 | JetPad FSE | VKB Gunfighter Pro Mk.III w/ MCG Ultimate VKBcontrollers.com

Vespa Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 Just a piece of art. Mainstay...can't wait to fly this beauty
Mainstay Posted August 30, 2014 Author Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) That weathering is beautiful Mainstay! If I have to nitpick it would be that the insignia on the wings looks a little too fresh and pop out against the rest of the paint which is more dull. Otherwise fantastic work! Thx Blaze. Work in progress the cross has been adjusted lot of wear is being redrawn almost pixel by pixel till I feel she's out of 1945. Edited August 30, 2014 by Mainstay
fastfreddie Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Got to be honest. Probably may favorite skin and German planes looks so much better than their counter parts in the paint category. Edited September 1, 2014 by fastfreddie
Hans-Joachim Marseille Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Just wow ... love the excessive weathering! It really makes you take a closer look at the plane's details. So many talented guys here :thumbup: Edited August 30, 2014 by Hans-Joachim Marseille
Mainstay Posted September 1, 2014 Author Posted September 1, 2014 I have good news and bad news... First the bad news; I lost all my layers due stupidity and i cant get em back:cry: Now the good news ; I was almost done. Working on Normal and Spec maps right now till im satisfied. Redone all the weathering textures and dirt. Engine smoke affected the wing now aswell like it should. etc etc
fastfreddie Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 You got to think these things stayed nasty especially underneath considering they were being hid in forest and taking off in fields. Is the weathering too much for the top of the plane though? It's not like these planes saw years of service and I'd imagine paint deterioration on the top as being less severe considering the short time span the Dora was in service.
Mainstay Posted September 1, 2014 Author Posted September 1, 2014 We are talking 1945 here. Germans almost lost the war.. short on everything. Like you said hid in forrests and take off from dirt shes dirty. By that time things were not nice anymore ;)

Like you said hid in forrests and take off from dirt shes dirty. By that time things were not nice anymore ;) I'm mostly talking about the cracks in the paint on top of the wings and tail where no one should be walking. Great job on the skins and I love alot of the skins you fellas are producing.

I love an extremely weathered FW190 like that. That is what I was talking about with your first skin and the pictures I sent you. Hope they helped a little. You are quite the talented skinner Sir!
