Thanks Yago9 for the superb Romanian Air Force L-39 :

1.
Superb Silver Shinning effect !
2.
Very Good Job detailing the Ejection Seats !
3.
Excellent "Mimic" repaint of the helmet to represent the current
Us Made HGU-55 Helmet.

About helmets, do youthink you can eventually create "Mimic" repaints for :

the Soviet Era "ZsH-5" Helmet
( still used by Romanian Officers and other military L-39 operators )
and
the Russain current "Zsh-7AP" Helmet
( also widely used by many military L-39 operators )

I know the oxygen mask could be a problem but at least could you
try it without the O2 mask ?

I am sure that many "Lotus L-39 Fans" would appreciate it.

ha,ha..I can sure start on it now and still finish it about one hour later..if you want me to..:jump: Do you know what this is ? It,s the front fuselage and rear, tied perfectly together for fast matching.All i have to do is put the right layer on top,cut it in sections and paste it on the main layer of the paint kit..Add shadows and wheatering and click save as DDS..I had this prepared before I saw your working on it,so I,ve stoped.This way I can give it a photoreal feel,more meat on the bone..the lithuanian one was made this way.

What ?!! I got the joke,and I joked back.Was nothing there,really.I just shared my secret "technic" with you.Anyway,I think you did a great job and will fly it with much pleasure for sure.:icon29:
 
Hi Yago,

Shocking to finally see the *real* L-39 come peeping thru from underneath its fake skin.. A Great White in albatross clothing ! Weeeeeee!!!!!!.... :isadizzy:

Great job, man ! :applause: ( not to mention great job of the RW livery designer ! )

Tell me something, in FS9 the good thing about photoreal paints is that we get to see all rivets, lines, bumps, dents, glints, etc., exactly like we see on the real thing. FSX comes with its own stuff like that to make it look 'almost' photoreal, right ?

Do i understand you remove all panellining and rivets from the photo (unlike you'd do for a FS9 photoreal paint ) and use the layered lining, rivets, weathering,etc., from the paint kit ?....

Just curious, working on a first FSX model, time to start texturing is nearing, wondering about going photoreal or not.....

Thanks mucho for your great Albatros repaints ! :ernae:

Cheers,
Jan
 
It,s not much photo real stuff in my FSX repaints..an accent here and there,things that doesnt make sense to paint by hand when i can use the real part..like the nose of the shark skin,the tail on the romanian 145..or i can let a reflection slip here and there It depends at the moment . FSX bump maps just complets the job and makes it easier.F86 ,s coming to town ..??.
 
Here,s the first try out for a fictional frecce tricolori..need only minor line adjustment and the correct fonts..It,s just a quick try out to see if it,s worth pusuing..It does..
