So beautiful Tails on such an ugly aircraft
-
All i can say is a big THANK YOU!!!
Very very nice!!! -
Got the panels and rivets done for the tails
Nav light frames need some work still…
-
Did you get the new template for whenever the new model comes out as well?
Would hate to see ya put in all that time just to have to redo everything.
-
Very good point I don’t have the new model template…someone please help me out
PS: These are the first panels I ever created myself so I look at it as good practice…on a NAVY trainer jet.

First post of that thread contains the skins that they’re wanting. I imagine they’d still give you the template regardless of what skins your doing since your skins are always accurate and very well done.
I don’t know if I’d have the will to create all of those rivets and panel lines, lol. I tried once when I was creating some 16 skins that we used privately, resorted to finding some one else’s template in the end. Didn’t have the patience back then that I have now though.
The template is ready.
If you would like to create a skin please send me a pm and provide your email address and what skin you intend to create. I’ll provide you with the details and the template.
thanks

Thanks for the info, I’ll check it out and ask for the templates…
Yea the rivets man, haha. There are some tricks to speed up the process but it is a pain. Upside is once its done it is accurate and looks like a charm.
Finished Jolly Rodgers tails, practically reworked the whole thing due to placement of AC lights and the stab tips…
And yes, I did forget to flip the MODEX on the left vertical stab

Very nice Pete, Bravo!

Unfair beauty contest…how ugly is this jet??? :-? *bugbash mode off
-
Great work man you’re a true artist
-
u r unfair m8 give them the same paintjob then judge them… meaning give the bug the painted tanks, the front diagonal line… the front nose to pit black area… also the underneeth like pit paintjob and then compare… Anyhow the F-14 was born sexy… lol

'Course Arty. I was referring more to the overall rather awkward looking profile:)
I have all the stencils finished in one big PSD but since I have to redraw every panel and rivet it’ll take some time before I can apply them.
-
Any progress with Super Hornet skins?? Man i know it;s summer but i can only decribe it, as a feeling of… “slight” anticipation…!!
-
This isn’t dead:) I just spent most of the spare time at night lately on reworking Tomcat panels.
Another issue is that the texmap for the new 18 model (which I now have) is for the C version only so no SH skinning possible there. I’m thinking I’ll finish one or two SH F skins for the old model and then maybe recycle some work for the new C/D model…
The Jolly Rodgers and Diamondbacks Anniversary skins will see the light of day!

Stingray, any chance you could be diverted to make a F/A-18F in a RAAF scheme? It would look great Korea 2012:D
-
Diversion…strange word, had to look it up
If you mean this:
and you want this on the ‘old’ (current) F model then I suppose it can be diverted in…
-
Stingray, how is your diversion going?
-
-
The diversion is at the stage of me collecting and creating the stencils for that AC. Other than that I’m still creating the panels of the overall AC…
