This was literally my first shot at stripping the paint from the aircraft. But I could upload it as is... Would be the least worked in Livery I ever did! There would be some issues with me uploading as is though. Like I've not done anything with the pylons or drop tanks. Not will I as my intention want to actually use this iteration. My ultimate goal is to create a Mirage III resemblance. This bird is more like the color of Titanium than Aluminum.

Here's how I'm wanting it to look. Closer anyway...now just have to deal with some smoothness issues in the RoughMet...you can't see it in these images (that's on purpose!). These are taken from ModelViewer -FYI-

Very nice. A bit too clinically perfect for me though

 

I still prefer the first - reminds of a rat rod

 

Excellent job on both though

You won't find any for a Mirage 2000. It's very much composites. Blended with Aluminum like a Viper. But you should have no trouble finding Mirage III's that are painted over bare metal.

 

Roger that. I was able to find this:

I think a skin with the boron/carbon composite surfaces being black/diffuse would look awesome with PBR. Anyways, keep up the great work!

Looks great !! quick Question ? Can you do this for the F-5E in tan ? like the fist version you have, shiny but a little rough.. like a veteran aircraft.. I'd like something that looks like its been sitting in the desert getting sand blasted finally gets a little TLC and a wax job before getting in a fight. Or any info on how i could do it myself I just dont know the first thing about for dcs thanks
