Stunning beauty

Stupid question (I know)

Whenever that baremetal paint is ready,where would be the usual download site?

Thanks

Roland

Truly payware quality!

stansdds; Just trying to keep pace with a steep but exciting learning curve.
A speedier workpace is also a desired objective... (I'm acutely aware of how much I've delayed the release of the Harpoon project).

Steve, ever enchanted by your own, very talented magical touch, I fear you overestimate my work.
But thanks for the encouragement, my friend.

Roland; Thank YOU, Sir.

NOT a stupid question - IMO, the only 'stupid' questions are the ones that never get asked.

"A fool is not he who asks a simple question, but he who would simply have its asking denied."
(Richards 2012)


The texture will be part of the Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon package.
Still work to be done before release (I'm the reason for its long delay).

I'm sure Milton will be uploading to the usual popular sites when the time comes, but as an SOH member, you'll be able to grab your copy right here at SOH.

Roland;

Milton has made awesome upgrades to VC/interiors since version 1, so you can look forward to a VC panel of higher detail/rendition in the final model(s).

The version 1 2D panel was a temporary/interim item - in keeping with other projects, we will construct the final 2D panel to closely resemble the VC.

Thanks

Roland,

If you are asking about the 3 VC panel bmps, they are currently at 1024 X 1024. FS9 VC limits will allow me to go to 1536 but that does not seem necessary to achieve good resolution for the 3 main panel bmps. If you are referring to the 2D panel, Nigel covered that well.

Please advise otherwise.

Finely tuning metallics

Roland, you and I have similar likes I will love the "incoming paint schemes" but the bare metal was my request from the beginning. Nigel has "nailed it"!

Milton

More then YES.Its a kind of ART

And a baremetal polished DC-2 Uiver eats many planes for breakfast

Thanks

Roland

My pleasure, Roland; I'll even fix you up with a high polish version if you like.

Roland, you and I have similar likes I will love the "incoming paint schemes" but the bare metal was my request from the beginning. Nigel has "nailed it"!

Nigel's still lovingly polishing your shiny bird, Skipper - it'll be better than the thread pics though, I assure you.



Guess I'd better stock up on some extra rags and brasso...


EDIT;
In addition to the metal version(s) mentioned above, I'm currently thinking on the lines of;

1.Standard dark blue U.S. Navy version
2.Two tone "Attu Warrior"
3.Late "dull metal/markings"
4.Civil metal/trim
6.Tanker-metal/red

I'm also open to suggestions for other schemes (preferably based on authentic paint schemes).

Any HU would be most welcome, Gentlemen.

Tankerguy having his fun

Used, abused and probably not airworthy haha

Thank you Milton
here's another texture being

Just finished adding retardant drop effects to the Harpoon Tanker. Edit: see below attachments

They are beautiful!

Cheers,
Maarten

Matt did a tanker texture I believe, and Let's not forget these works of art by Marty and TG72

Maarten did two liveries I need to go find ... yes, in the library here at SOH.

 

[Milton Shupe]

Martial has been super busy grinding out 4 new beautiful liveries for the FSX Harpoon port over.

He sent these two weeks ago and I am just getting the time to review them in FSX.

Not sure when these will be available yet although they work fine on the WIP release.

Thank you Martial for sharing your outstanding work.

And here are Marty's 4 liveries ... will be available for FSX port-over; just waiting for release of the Harpoon-FSX.
