Here is one I'm working on. This is using Rick's aluminum textures as a base, still need to go in and adjust the alpha for a more wartime
look. I just wanted to see what it looked like in sim, and just like a First Date you want to look good. :wavey:

Fifinella is looking good Joe. Aaahhhh, yes, chipping paint! Relatively painless, just time consuming. It would be nice if someone would come up with a digital paint chipping "brush". :very_drunk:

I think its already there Steve. I would love to have it, but as you have to have Photoshop first, I just can't afford it.................

The whole video is very interesting but the real paint work starts at 8:14. really amazing!
(However wouldn't this destroy the real fun from repainting?)

 
I have Quixel Suite and it's actually a mixed blessing. You have to remember that it's a procedural painting tool, designed for PBR applications (which FSX isn't - XP11 and FSW are, I don't think P3Dv4 is PBR yet, either) so actually doesn't have a lot of application to us here... For starters, you'll need the original high poly model, with layers baked out from the 3d modelling software, in a format that can be understood by Quixel and, critically, the correct orientation (which isn't the correct orientation for FSX, either...)

You'll then discover that 99% of what it creates is of no use to you whatsoever, as you'll need to convert the PBR material layers to "flat" legacy textures. Oh, and if you do start using Quixel, get another application to burn your curvature map, because even though Quixel's tutorials say it can be done internally, the result is horrible! XNormal seems popular, apparently. The put on the :teapot: and have fun. :)

Cheers,

Ian P.

The video is very impressive. And, I too would use it if I could afford it. However, as IanP has already said, it doesn't work so much in FSX. It also seems to me the skill is in learning how to use the app rather than than having the skills and talent of an artist. The art is in the app! Just my first impression.

Steve
 
As you most probably already know I'm a real dinosaur when it comes to modern graphic programs. So I already got lost in Ian's first sentence :biggrin-new:.
But I do understand Quixel is useless for FSX. Which is good to know, as that way I won't be replaced by an app.

Cheers,
Huub
 
OMG, looks like painters will have to take up modeling just to use Quixel. That would be a lot of talent in one package. :wiggle:


BTW, Wellis is wrapping up his A-20 Havoc work and will be starting on the Marauder interior very soon.
