Looking good.

 

Just touching up a few things on the DHFS liveries....

 

I might even release them tomorrow if they are finished..

[Skulleader]

Hello,

 

This time one simple repaint, not real just fictional.

A mix between the movie "Dante's Peak and National Park Service", one little trip for me...

I hope that you'll love it...

one or two little textures bugs but it's the fault of the 3D model...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bye, Skull.

Would someone be able to make a Navy Black Cats team skin for the Huey?

Hello Wissam24,

 

Great paint but I'm not enough good for created this cat, very beautiful paint.

Sorry... Skull

[joey45]

I'm currntly doing a RN Huey....

 

I could try and do the cat.

[Wissam24]

I don't possess any PS skills or I'd try it myself. I think it's an absolutely stunning paintjob and I think it warrants being made for the Huey!

[joey45]

Unless someone does it first I'll have a go either Friday or Sunday...

[Skulleader]

Hello here my new repaint, is it the C-GEAG ;)

I've saw this Huey during the last airshow of EALAT 07-29-2014.

 

Héli Protection SAS is a French private capital company established in 1989.

For more than 20 years, we have devoted our experience to aerial work in helicopters (lifting, photo and video), and more specifically to wildfires.

 

A partner of Fire Departments of several departments in Southeast France, our service and professionalism make us one of the leading companies in this field.

 

Our priority is the safety of flights, using a fleet that is constantly modernized, maintained under the most stringent European PART145 standard, and with crews that have several thousands of hours of flight experience in our fields of activity who are subject to a rigorous skills maintenance program.

Our new operational base located in Cannet des Maures (Var- FRANCE) is ideally located at the center of the PACA region.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The real Huey:

 

 

 

 

 

Bye, Skull.

Bye, Skull.

[RazorbackNL]

Once again truely awesome skins, Skull. I am getting bored repeating myself :smilewink:

 

I was wondering if it would be possible for you to write a repaint tutorial so I can have a go myself. I have really no idea how you repaint guys are pulling it off every time again. It would be awesome if you could help me with my first steps into the skinning world.

 

Thanks in advance,

Razorback

[piXel496]

Wow. Tres chic, Skull :thumbup:

[joey45]

They're awesome.

[DSPALLASVI]

Great Work!! Love the detail; like the twin colours on the main rotor trim-tabs!

[Lizzard]

Ha..Skull is on a roll

 

Very awesome Skins Sir:thumbup:

[Skulleader]

Hello guys,

 

Thanks for you kindly words...

 

I was wondering if it would be possible for you to write a repaint tutorial so I can have a go myself. I have really no idea how you repaint guys are pulling it off every time again. It would be awesome if you could help me with my first steps into the skinning world.

Hello Razorback,

 

Aie, it's not easy for me because my English is not perfect, for the software I use Photoshop and PaintNet.

 

For my civilian version I like the clean Huey and for the military Huey I love just a little dirt.

 

In first:

With Photoshop I play with the layers for have one clean or weathering version (fuselage + tail).

 

In second:

After when I think that my work if good I save to BMP format.

 

In third:

I open PaintNet and I load my BMP files and I save in DDS format.

DXT1 for all my fuselage textures and tail.

For the blades I save in DXT5, flight suit...

 

In fourth:

I test the result with ModelViewer of ED, if I meet one problem I return with Photoshop and I fix the error, save to BMP, open with PaintNet the same file and I save to DXT1.

After I teste again with ModelViewer.

 

Sometime I must watch my repaints IRL with DCS because sometime ModelViewer is not good for obtain the best result for me.

 

The must will be that one guy who talk English for make one tutorial because it's not so easy for me...

 

I hope that this little explanation will be not too simple...

 

Bye, Skull.

 

EDIT:

Other repaint WIP:

 

[scrtagnt69]

:thumbup:Yet another amazing job Skulleader...

[ebabil]

looks cool indeed. can you make worn out liveries? it would be more realistic imo.

[Skulleader]

Hi,

 

Yes I can make easily a weathering version because I must just modify the opacity of the layers (weather and other) and everything is OK.

 

But in fact the civilians version "Fire Dep" are very clean IRL as you can see with these two photos:

 

 

 

The US engines ares very clean, a great class:

 

 

Bye, Skull.
