I'll just twiddle thumbs and hang out for yours...;)

Meanwhile I've found a few other paints to do...;)
 
fun part comes as i've still to do the English and German markings (including that 'Q' for Quality passed sticker (or as an ex-East German Army friend of mine said "Vague amounts of Quality is there"! ))
 
The east german paints are going to be a bit of a pickle, because they only had the -ZA (four hardpoints, gunsight, structural differences) and -V (target tug). The latter version is quite intriguing to model, but ugh....so...many...necessary...changes. :(

i'll admit to having a dark humour level so that made me laugh!

just finishing the BBC (Sorry.... VVS, BBC means 'Военно-воздушные cилы' and is technically the 'correct' title) decals now.... just wing upper and lowers to do then i'm going to get going on the English :jump:
 
Hi Guys,

I've just installed the L39, and it looks very good.

The model is looking for a texture called DDS (no extension) - is it OK use a dummy texture instead?

Cheers
 
Found a bit of 'legit' 'nose-art' [though it's on the fin]...and where I'm at with other text/details ...;)

Sounds like a dodgy download.. and something's 'missing', though there shouldn't be an error-call for a 'dds'...that's a file suffix.
Meanwhile, I think I'm happy with the metal...alphas and spec. Can't find [as yet] some clean 'albatros' text for the tip tanks [or its font], and am still hanging out for Matt's notes details. Then I'll be able to churn out some hi-res paints..;)

Finally got around to trying the update. Great job Bjoern! A fantastic update to a classic FS2004 design. Many thanks!!! :applause:
