F86 SABRE JET COCKPIT REPAINT. BLACK VERSION

Repaint of the F-86 Cockpit
This model, which was very well made in its time, is already quite old, and I believe it deserves a modernization. I have carried out the repaint based on the black cockpit scheme, as I had complete photographic references of this version and, in this way, it also allows the option of flying both variants. All labels and legends have been recreated according to the available real-world information, while keeping in mind the limitations of integrating them into an already existing model.

Repaint of the F-86 Sabre Jet Cockpit

What has been achieved:
-Application of a black base coat on the cockpit model.
-Addition of metal wear effects, scratches, and layers of dust and dirt to enhance realism.
-Implementation of roughmet layers, allowing for highlights and reflections that vary depending on the material of each surface.

Limitations encountered:
-The original model does not include bump maps in its files, which makes it impossible to simulate surface roughness and fine reliefs through the shader. Despite this, every effort has been made to achieve a convincing result.
-The instrument lights could not be altered, as they are not texture-dependent but rather determined by the way the models were originally exported.

Looks good.

That would be quite a hot cockpit in the sun.  Hope the air works as it should.
