Mike Durao has asked me to share these WIP with you all. They will be released as a package once specular and bump mapping has been completed.

Bump maps are nearly done; I'm just going to wait for the specular-mapped model to come out.

Very cool! Been flying Dino's F14D a lot! In addition to the new "skins" on my wishlist would be a manual wingsweep capability. :ernae:
 
VF-103 never operated F-14Ds; the only squadrons to use them were VF-2/31/101/213. I'm going to make real high and low-viz schemes for every squadron.
 
Those paints are looking really nice

Mike, your repaints are looking really nice.
I'm packing the model with specular maps right now (I am trying to mitigate the shading issues on the tails).
Specular effect is subtle, but it is definitely an enhacement.

By the way the new model will not have the "modeled" burner anymore...as the source for that model was lost (file corrupted ...and no backup), so they will be (removable) particle effects.

I'll make a post on my blog once the file is ready.

Dino
