Talented texture artist(s) required

Those skins look amazing all lined up like that. Kudos to you, Tankerguy.

I know this is late in the game...and I noticed the USFS bird, N13745, which is cool because that livery is the one I fly in FS Economy. Any chance of an all white one as well? In looking for the USFS photo when I painted the current model I am using in the USFS paint I noticed a lot of the C-119s that are still flying or recently flew had a large amount of white skin with some polished metal and colors. The mix looked amazing and if the base is all metal it is difficult using the tools I have at my disposal to get a white base to work from.

Wish I was a better texture artist. I'd offer my services, but using GIMP and Paint.net and DXTBMP I feel I would be overwhelmed. I have never done a bump or specular, except to alter existing speculars to fit a repaint I have done.

Patience is my watchword...good things come to those who wait. :untroubled:

That is an awesome line of aircraft textures. The #1 texture I would have asked for is in that lineup, the Thunderbird's support aircraft. :jump: Thank you for that one. Really looking forward to this release. Thank You to the whole crew. :applause::applause::applause:

Not sure if there will be a white scheme released but there will be a paintkit where a white livery could easily be made.
 
I have to agree with everyone else, those textures look amazing! The modeling looks excellent as well. Nice work by the Boxcar team. :)

When do you think Larry will be getting the final textures so this project can finally be released?

Sent him a big batch of textures late last week he got back to me with some fixes I need to do and I should have those off to him probably tomorrow for approval
 
Sorry I forgot to add Cabbie in the group picture. New batch of textures sent off to Larry and if I did my job right final textures should be wrapped up. :wiggle:

 
I decided to "push development" without "pushing developers". How you might ask? Well, have you ever washed your car, only to have it start raining soon after you are done? Have you ever purchased something you wanted...or needed...really badly, only to discover it went on sale for 50% off a week after you bought it?

So, I finally purchased, virtually of course, a C-119 in FSEconomy. It kinda got "pushed" on to me when a partner, who allowed me unlimited use of his leased Boxcar, disappeared from the FSE scene and the Boxcar got repossessed. I contacted the lessor and asked if I could continue the lease and was allowed to, but catching up the defaulted payments was some serious work and lots of Boxcar flying.

All the while I kept an eye on this thread, hoping against hope the release would be announced. Not so and suddenly I had a "virtual" Boxcar. I have been flying a freeware version of Daisuke Yamamoto's FS2004 model that had been ported over to FSX with some serious modifications, but the paints weren't to my liking and the eye point for the pilot was off and...and...and. Still, I delayed doing anything to it in the wish that soon...

Well, today I decided to "wash the car" and "buy that sorely needed item". I have been holding off doing anything with the freeware Yamamoto version ("wash the car") knowing as soon as I did the SoH version would be released ("rain"). So, today I did a repaint of the version I am flying in the colors of my private FSEconomy Group, Central Idaho Aviation. I fixed the eyepoint. I added some things to the panel to make it more "friendly". I did all that...the better part of eight hours of work...in the hopes that "it rains tomorrow" and the item "goes on sale"... :untroubled:

My repaint...

I did "cheat" a little and followed the scheme for the US Forest Service livery, N13745, which made painting it a little easier. I did leave the USFS Logo on the vertical fins.
