Looks good so far, Falcon!
The camo pattern is very eye capturing and seems historically correct.
I had a look on other skins you did for your Squadron, and can say loved the wheatering effects you threw in many of them.

:) :D :badgrin: :p

NP, Willie. As the original profile was put together by me as a study for a personalyzed aircraft skin for my own use, I will let you use it with number 80, and for free ;) . (Ok I will accept a cold beer from you...).

Cheers!

Steps 146 - 321 ...

correcting camo patterns, creating new graphics, identifying trouble areas and more updating of my old template.

I will decrease the opacity and slightly blur the camo after the patten is finalized.

Next step ... maybe the new shark face.

Thanks Willie, I will make the basic new skin available to all who would like one when finished.

Might wanna...

...do something about the radio mast. :)

Yeah, I know. The client also made a comment about the mast. As you can see, I'm putting a colored test mask layer over the star to see exactly where the double matting is.

>sigh<

The La-7 mat could have been made better.

I never did figure out just WHERE the hid that radio mast on the skins for those things either..

I'm sure Falcon will dicover where it hides. Looking good.

I threw a beer your direction, should be there shortly. :shock: :D

Tons of wee errors on void and old template fixed, more to go. Face almost lined up and nearly ready for detailing.
