Australian Mirage

[Strut]

Skins based on real Australian Mirage IIIO(F) interceptors and the IIIO(A) ground attack variants. Australia also had Mirage IIID. I have done skins for 3 Sqn, 2 OCU, 75 Sqn, 76 Sqn and 77 Sqn RAAF. This post is final for these skins the pics below are the latest. They can be downloaded from http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/ use the search to locate them.

[Stonehouse]

Yes please!

Nice Strut. Was thinking the ARDU airframes would look a treat as well :thumbup:

[CHSubZero]

looking great your Ozzie skins :-) They look similar to the Swiss Mirage IIIRS camoflage

[Strut]

Thanks fella's, these are a bit premature, I want to change some things with these and I plan to make some ARDU skins as well. Those Swiss IIIRS look nice too CHSubZero ! Im hoping that Razbam release their skin textures soon.

I think you could change a bit the paint camo (just vary a bit the "curves") so that all skins don't look identical with just different markings. :)

My thoughts exactly, thats what im looking at doing.

Great skins, takes me back to airshows and model building as a kid. One small suggestion. Seeing as though you are taking a bit of artistic licence already with the mirage version, perhaps you could use a little more and move the roundel out of the shade.

I was thinking about moving them to a position beside the cockpit.

Just move the roundel closer to the edge of the intake

Yep thats a good fix, the simple are often better.

Nice skins, I really miss the Mirage 3s, they had a kind of gracefulness about them that was replaced by the brutish FA-18.

Yeah here in Switzerland we had the same :cry:

Our beloved Mirage IIIS & IIIRS (even with the so called Mirage-affair) have been slowly replaced in the 90s by the F/A-18C

Cool Strut, is it possible to camo the drop tanks?

[gospadin]

should be, just gotta find the material name

[Stonehouse]

Looks amazingly good.

Plane camo looks good but tanks have the sharp straight line cutoff (it must be tha tanks use 2 separate parts for the texture). Can you make their camo stop bit earlier and round it off so it doesn't cut off in straight line?

If i stop before the cutoff you will see lots of white on top side of the tank in front of the wing, il stretch it further to the rear of the tank,i think thats the best option.

Going to have to buy this module to make use of these skins:thumbup:

[droopy114]

This skins look very good, nice work :thumbup:

[Kuky]

Much better fuel tanks look! But I have one more tip for you... the camo pattern "edge" is too sharp. It looks like being painted with brush. To make it look more natural and more like paintbrush spray-on, use brush tool to making edge, with 3-5 pixels of "softness"... that'll make it look even better... trust me ;)

[Kuky]

Nice one :thumbup: Now I need to try them out
