Noseart
Noseart
Been prowling the forum but not seen any, so I hadda make one - have I missed them or is it just me who plays with bombers with noseart?
Anyway as my B-25 took another battering of spray paint and gets another day closer to completion (27% complete...loading...) I decided to make a Fighting Irish noseart thing for it - (33% complete..loading...) - just bragging rights mostly as its my first really irishy one..anyway without further ado... I unveil it... *Drum roll* lights, action - queue dissaponitment
Tad-daaaaa!

It is in the skinners forum> P-47 FI topic.
Not sure what the issue might be, sounds like it's right. You use PSP or Photoshop? PSP would be Falcon's department, I don't have a clue, now Photoshop... I can help ya out. I have found that some nose art doesn't load real well. A simple horizontal name, tends to look very small and pixelated when I tried it, but the pinup girl, worked great.

Be sure to copy, edit and change it BACK to 8 bit with BRIGHT.
and it should work.

Brings up a good point, why was noseart always risque but never pornagraphic - was done by men wasn't it? my first thought was that if you crash landed in a enemy village the small children would be traumatized by such artwork.. or Sgt Major was a prude or something..
Either way I have no idea - was there like rules for noseart?

Hey Falc,
Working on a anime set, so if you can wait I'll send you a job lot later today - you can put the extras over the top - currently working on some new wheels....
Not sure if I like the yellow or the more authentic silvery colour, neither are perfected to a high standard yet... also remember nobody ever zooms in that close as a rule to see every pixel imperfection!
