Taproot Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) Hey guys. This thread could be placed in screenshots thread or the mods and apps thread, but I decided to post it here, where the "Hog" enthusiasts are. Some while back I posted my version of the Arctic Snow Hog, it so happened I wasn't to happy with the result. I made another version, but still I was not satisfied. Many photoshop hours later (that I'm not good at) I decided to make a close to "the real thing" as I possible could. "The real thing" was used during exercise Cool Snow Hog in 1982. There is my understanding they tried different paints. I ended up copying one of them. More info can be found here. My skin is not perfect. It is as perfect as I manage to do without twisting my brain inside out, or drown myselfe in the tub. Some nibs that should be white is green, and vice versa. It is originally made for the virtual airwing I'm with. The 138th from Norway. Any norwegian airwing should have a winterskin.. Now, to the point. Are you guys interested in this skin? If I'm too share it with the public I need to change logos and maybe nationality. Something that I cba if there is no interest.. Anyways, here are some screens of the model with the end result. And I'm looking forward to hear your opinion. Edited February 19, 2013 by Taproot Link should be working now.. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home Fries Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 That's a very nice skin, and you could very easily add the Camo layers to the existing template to allow for different colored patterns. I would be interested in both the skin and the template. -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taproot Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Well, since people seemed to like it I have uploaded it to this place. However, it still says "checking" on the upload. I uploaded it 24 hours ago. Is the "checker" sick or something? Will give you links when its checked. Regarding template I have not yet desided if I'm gonna share it or not. So for now I will let it stay in my computer. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taproot Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) And it passed the check. The arctic hog download. I also threw in a Red Baron Scheme for that 1337 feeling. The Red Baron download. Edit: Snowhog had some shading issue, so I had to release it ones more.
