Aero L-39 Albatros

yago, please please please release that blue camo skin that looks so real!!!! :)

and would anyone want do a fictional F16 like skin for this plane?

One day if I told myself that if I ever have the money to buy this plane, I will get it painted to look like an F16 :)
 
Thank you for comments. I had some doubts for THIS MODEL ,on using photoreal texture because,like not many other FSX models,this one has an excellent specular mapping wich can make it look very real without many of the photoreal "tricks". For screenshots , you still can,t beat a good photoreal one. It,s why I start doing them in the first place,for the old and long gone "screenshotart.com ". I didn,t make those for regular flying at first, I was making one side only sometimes, taking a good screenshoot for editing,and scrape it.People saw it look real and asked for it, so i had to learn how to do a whole photoreal plane, all around , from very little good material.
So I start taking the material myself..at airshows.That,s how my airshow photos look like..:icon_lol:

I will do the same texture non-photo and maybe release both..like I did with the zlin50

How in the hell do you do that so fast?:icon_lol:


I'll bet if you told KIWIKAT they weren't photoreal, he'd say those were the greatest hand-painted jobs he'd ever seen.....

Been there done that... :mixedsmi:

As for being the best... rofl...
 
jesus dude! how did u do that so fast!? lol

could u please send me those or upload them here or something?

I want the non LR version if possible :)

this sucks! i'm going to some event now and won't be able to fly these fr couple of days GRRRRR lol :)(
 
Nothing it,s photoreal in those textures..How can it be ? Did i ripped an F16 photo and melted on L39 ? It,s a 10 minutes "A Cave Man Can Do It " paint kit job.Parts from AS F16 kit included..
It,s what I was saying from the start..This paint kit it,s so complex,it,s almost unfair to take credit for any textures.You need two base colors and some markings.Paint kit will do the rest,shadows,rivets,dirt,shine..it,s all provided by the true artist whom made the kit..All you need it,s a bit of memory to remember and use the same amount of shadows for front and back fuselage. That,s it.." a monkey can do it "
 
so can u send those to me or upload them?

either that or I'll do what u did... i'll get on AS F16's kit and then this one and merge them, but like you've said earlier to the green cockpit... you did this, no need for a noob like me to do it
