I have just installed this beautiful mod and it's amazing. Thanks you so much for making this high quality livery.

 

 

 

I also asked about the MiG 29C, can it be used too?

[Texac]

This skin can't be used for the 9-13. I will adjust/convert the texturers for the S version.

hi texac, amazing skins. i hope you can make some more for our lovely mig - especially former ussr cold war era skins.

 

 

regarding the farnborough skin: is it possible that the colours of the original one from 88 were a little lighter/softer - especially the green?

Create proper request threads with the paint schemes you'd like to see for the MiG, easier to pick up your wishes this way.

 

For the Farnborough, the colors are harder to make out on these old pictures, I was thinking about making the white color a bit darker, more grayish like the standard paint scheme, but I decided against that.

[flanker1]

i will do!

 

 

thank you very much for your excellent work on making skins.

 

 

for reference regarding the "10":

based on the most pics and known colors the soviets used - i guess it´s more a grey than a white. . .

[Texac]

Other images from b-domke show both gray and white paint.

 

 

It is difficult to distinguish, I think I will readjust the white to a more grayish color.

A « out of factory » skin will probably be metallic with yellow patches.

 

 

I know it's a MiG-35 but i guess it is more or less similar for the -29.

Oooops, my post above is in the wrong thread sorry.

[Texac]

Reworked the white color, now it is much darker. Your thoughts?

To my eyes the grey is now spot on, but maybe the darker green on the first version is more correct. But as already said, photos also vary in colors depending on a number of cirumstanfces so it can be subjective...anyway, great job :thumbup:

[Texac]

You are right green was changed as well, somehow. I will fix that. Thank you.

texac, much better now. . . i would like to have it exactly like this - shown in your last post, also the green should not be darker in my opinion. :-) thanks again!

I have compared both green colors, multiple times, and it appears that our eyes are just fooling us, or it is due to the DCS lightning engine. :)

 

Both greens have the same values.

 

 

[flanker1]

i like it!!!!!!!!! :-)

[dali]

the second is historically more correct, both are wonderful. Great job!

[Texac]

Thanks everyone!

 

I have updated the skin now, it includes the color change to gray and a correct gun panel texture.

 

Next I will adjust the textures to the MiG-29S 9-13, although not historically correct.

[flanker1]

we have to thank, what a wonderful addition for soviet hardware lovers!! :-)

[Burning Bridges]

I really like the first one two, very colorful ;D
