Just Flight Wildcat repaint WIP

I am working on a complete, from the ground up repaint, including new bump maps. This is a repaint for the -3, which will now have proper panel line configurations for the -3 version. Still got some more tweaking to do yet.

Thanks everyone! I'm still trying to work around a few mapping issues.

I have tried to find a way to bring down the shine a little, but no luck. I have checked all the texture files, so I am guessing its modeled in. Oh well...

nice shots, Rob. Can the Justflight Wildcat only be bought from the Justflight Shop? I might get it, but I don't like the payment method there(credit card).

BTW, if you want the coastlines (beaches) to show on the Solomon scenery, you need to edit the scenery.cfg with a little entry (see installation notes).

Cheers,
Mark
 
Please do a more weathering necessarily. I know not finisehed but F4F looks like never to fly and never used in combat missions. Not like a real aircraft.

Example:

Thanks everyone!:salute:

roger-wilco-66, I got mine from the shop at Flightsim.com, however you will still have to use a credit card I belive. Not sure if they use paypal or not. I checked the installation notes and couldn't find the entry. I have V1 installed. Is the entry in the included pdf file?

Will do YoYo. yeah I am just getting started. I am working on getting everything lined up right now, like the bump maps and such. But I will definatly put more dirt on her.

ColoKent, yes the paint kit is included.
 
Great stuff there, Rob!

Mind some nitpicking?
It may be due to the perspective of your screenies, but I think the meatball is a tad too small:
From what I've read about USN insignia, the red dot lies tangential to the star's edges connecting lines.

Just did a quick sketch to show what I mean.

Cheers,
Markus.
 
Hehe, that thread inspired me to buy the Wildcat (finally found a software store the sells them and accepts paypal as a payment method).
Can't wait until I get home and give the Wildcat a few hops out of Seghi airfield / Solomons!

Cheers,
Mark
 
Well, :redf: this is the best I can do with this repaint. Still wish I could reduce the shine, oh well. Hope to upload tomorrow, with some other schemes as well. Will probably do a few more war paints for the -3, then I will try to do some Pre-war paints next.:salute:
