Awesome paint, Stuart!
When I have finished the KLM paint (feat. PJ-AKA and PJ-AKB) real life will have priority for a few weeks, after which I'll attempt to make the NAC paint.

Lodestar Updates for the L-18s and C-57 and C-60A
Models replacement folders for all models
Changes include:
1) Exhaust headers now can be textured from the winginner bmp
2) Props have been mapped so the front and rear faces are separately textured
on the parts_t.bmp
3) Parts.bmp changed to parts_t.bmp to allow alpha channel to shine the prop
blades, like for chrome.
4) engine and brake bmps adjusted but no change for you to do
5) Pilot textures for the military pilots of the C60A. The C60A is a paratroop transport and no longer has a
civilian pilot. You will need to repaint the military pilot textures for a civilian livery or use the L-18 Wright engine version.

The inner door was put onto the cabin sides sheet and the bench onto the inner seats texture a while back... have a look back in the thread for the mapping updates.
Great to see the on going progress of the Lodestar and the repaints... Awesome!
I'm in Viennia at this moment, just arrived after the long journey from Hongkong.
Maarten, I would've helped by posting a color photo of a NAC Lodestar, for you to look at, but I can't help as the picture would have to be scanned from a book and it is at home back in NZ.

Kia Ora Mark,
Thank you!
I'm not in a hurry since I won't be able to do any paintwork until the end of the month. At this moment I am applying the finishing touches (details) for the two KLM West Indies Division Lodestars. Precision work since I have to re-rivet those places where I have put paint on. Hopefully I can release both in one package by Saturday.
I'll wait doing the NAC Lodestar(s?) till you're back home.
Cheers,
Maarten

The paintjob of KLM West Indisch Bedrijf's (= West Indies Division) Lockheed C-60A-5-LO Lodestar PJ-AKA is ready now and the paint is drying. Probably tomorrow (August 6) the paintjob of sistership PJ-AKB will be finished too, after which I can upload both in one package at SOH's Warbird Library. So far it has been a huge pleasure to do this job using Rachael "Firekitten" Whiteford's awesome paint kit.
Cheers,
Maarten

Kia Ora Maarten, I won't be back home till early October, so it'll be a long wait!
I like your repaints of the KLM west indies Lodestars, thought it was such a waste to throw them into the sea just like that.
I see that there has been some model updates made, so I'll have a bit of work to do when I come back and update my vc cockpit textures to fit in with the updates.

Hi there,
The all new repaints for the Lockheed model 18 Lodestar (Wright R-1820 engines) featuring KLM West Indisch Bedrijf PJ-AKA and PJ-AKB, based on Firekitten's fabulous Lodestar paintkit incl. Mark Rogers' ditto interior textures, have just been uploaded. After approval they will be available at SOH only as long as the Lodestar is still a "work in progress". (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=198&linkid=20008)
My initial repaints, based on Andre Reimers' bare metal textures have been withdrawn from SOH's Warbirds Library. Until that moment 112 downloads of this preliminary repaint package had taken place.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Maarten
