Italian Sabres...

jocko417 · May 21, 2015

After the RAF returned their Canadair-built Sabre Mk.4s they were refitted with the 6-3 wing and sold to Italy. Work in progress...

Made a new template dedicated to the Mk.4, in order to represent Canadair Sabres that served in other NATO air forces.

Canadair Sabre Mk.4 19634 of 4th Stormo, AMI.

Stencils re-done to match font from photos provided to me by forum member Vespa.

Includes AMI pilot skin with shoulder patches.

This particular aircraft has been fitted with a replacement canopy, still in natural metal finish.

Also re-working cockpit textures, AMI Sabres had cockpits finished in flat black. This might not end up completely perfect, for some reason some panels refuse to render in anything but the original colour... :cry:

We shall see.

Thanks a lot for your efforts...the livery looks so beautiful! Let's hope to get some feedback about cockpit textures to have it Painted perfectly! ;)

Just a question..is it correct that part in gray?

jocko417 · June 1, 2015

No, that's the issue I was having before. The only way to fix it is to change the default cockpit textures, the livery textures alone can't change everything.

The new black cockpit textures I am uploading with the RAF liveries will fix that.

IMPORTANT- these black cockpit textures overwrite the default cockpit, so if you want to fly a livery with a grey cockpit you'll have to change them back first.

This will all be in the README.

Thanks for feedback..So I'll wait for the RAF liveries to fix it...right?

Thank very good skin but is possible to have with default color cockpit ?

Bye

jocko417 · June 3, 2015

If you prefer the default cockpit, open the description file in the livery folder and delete the following lines:

{"F86_Cockpit", 0, "f-86f_cockpit_BLACK", false},

{"F-86F_Texture1", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture1_BLACK",false},

{"F-86F_Texture2", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture2_BLACK",false},

{"F-86F_Texture3", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture3_BLACK",false},

{"F-86F_Texture4", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture4_BLACK",false},

{"F-86F_Texture5", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture5_BLACK",false},

{"F-86F_Texture8", 0 ,"f-86f_cockpit_texture8_RCAF",false},

Save and that's it.

Should work.

in DCS the GRAY Italian sabers are missing, I wonder if any good skinners desiner can do them for me.

Xilon_x · October 25, 2019

and more than 3 months I have made this request and none of you skinners are capable of making an Italian livery.... is it possible that none of you is capable of making this series of gray and green Italian sabers? you are incapable.

I thought you were better as an artist.

Strut · October 25, 2019

Hey Xilon X, I can understand your frustration, maybe you should have approached someone directly with a request ! I think a lot us dont read every thread and are quite busy in our own worlds, so to speak. Anyway I will make these for you ,just give me a little time , ive got a couple of little projects on the go. So please be cool and before you know it you will have some Sabres flying for Italy.

Xilon_x · October 25, 2019

ok i'll wait patiently i hope this time it's not the umpteenth mockery.

no I didn't turn to a skinner in particular but to all the skinners but if now you Pavoneggiarsi you took this engagement I will turn only to you.

Strut · October 26, 2019

No worries Xilon, all good mate.

Strut · October 28, 2019

Hi Xilon, this is a "first pass" which is obviously not finished yet, but I am posting to show you its being made. Wont be long. More to follow.

Nice!

Strut · October 28, 2019

A few more adjustments here and there needed but its comming on.

Xilon_x · October 28, 2019

nice very nice thanks.

I tell you, though, that I, who is differentiating them, is the nose ... red and black nose, red green and black, white and black, and finally only green nose.

I would be glad that other Sabers with silver livery would also make me the mimentic green livrey, with the variation of the color of the nose. The real photos I posted in the link above and you can take a look.

thank you very much thank you for waiting for your finished work.
