• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

GAF F-104 final scheme

Thanks Markus!

I already gave up on this aircraft as it would not install on my win7/64 computer, but I found a newer version of the 104 (1.3) at the CS site and that worked!
 
Some of the best Fs bare metal paints I have seen! :applause:

Up to 70,000 feet and back to earth for an almost perfect landing! (One of the few.. ;) )

Thanks a ton, guys!

It took me some time to fiddle with the appropriate alpha settings, but please keep in mind it's still the awesome paint kit provided by Captainsim which made this paint possible!
Of course I had to replace the stock rescue and ejection markings by my custom decals - but after all I (once again) have to address my appreciation to the CS texture artists. They definitely have built a terrific canvas to play with!

Side note:
According to my sources, the wing's upper surfaces were painted white and the lower wing dark grey. Their quite odd appearance is intentional.

Cheers,
Markus.
