DC-10 Tanker

SOH-CM-2025
Inspired by the shots posted in the FSX forum, I decided to work on this repaint this afternoon.

Still a WIP. Also, the real aircraft is a DC-10-10 and the Model I used is a -30

Also, the model doesn't have the belly tank... but, It's as close as I can get until someone can make the real model.

I used the Eric Cantu SGA DC-10-30 since there was a paint kit available.

Saw the real world bad boy cruising low and slow during the Freeway Complex Fire last year. Nice rendition for the SGA model.
 
The color was hard to nail down. The paint kit wasn't layered so I had to use some transparency to let the details show through a bit. that makes it hard to get the color close. I'll tweak it a bit today and then try to get it uploaded.
