Cleaning Out The Closet

I've had a bunch of C-46 Commando paints for the California Classics C-46 that I did about a year ago while my wife was in the hospital (had to do something to keep my sanity). Most are fictional paint schemes where I was trying out some new idea I had about painting. I just uploaded most of them to the Warbirds Library here although there were some that I don't think are ready for public abuse that I'm going to redo. All are 2048x2048 .dds format.

I messaged you separately as well, Willy, about these aircraft.

Sure good to see them, and an excellent job on each!
 
Oh....I'll have to check what level I'd got it at....I tend to get things 'mostly' and then get sidetracked...;)
If it's half-decent [not half-arsed] I'll up it...;)

Edit....looks like it's all there....even glass in the windah's ...Yokes that yoke....horizon is way out of whack.....didn't notice before...but you'd expect the scenery horizon to be somewhere in the middle of the screen...not at the top...;)
 
Reworking

This is the first one that needed a redo I had posted about earlier. This is a work in progress shot to check out how I've get the edges of the paint sitting. The tail still needs tweaking, then it'll be time to adjust the rivets and if that all goes good, it'll be on to doing up the alpha layer to polish it up a bit. Sometimes I think I make this much harder than it needs to be.......

May I humbly politely bump this thread wether that panel could get a bit of progress ??
