Revisions on some areas, added louver panel and rudder stitching. This is all done by embossing/engraving technique. It can be painted in the same fashion as the Carenado type aircraft.
My focus is on the model when time permits. Will post updates next weekend.
Hi TuFun,
You are making a VEEERY good job, after seen Your screenshots I decided to stop my paintkit waiting for Your one, I encountered a lot of problems in texturing simmetry in Bazzar's original fuselage mapping, problems that transform the weathering and shading of the surfaces in a very hard job,
, so I think it will be better for me to apply my weathering and shading on Your base textures. I hope You solved this problem.....
A question : the bmps will be in 2048x2048 or bigger (4096x4096) ?

Egg Shell
Why thank you! Thus far the only texture file I've done is the fuselage at 2048x2048. All other textures are still Caz's 1024x1024. P3Dv2 provides all the shading built in from DX11.
The one area that may need some shading is the curved panel lines/rivets starting from the rear of the canopy to near the front of the tail as it tapers back. Caz may have some good technique on this for you.
Now the Grumman has an egg shell (canvas) to which one now can paint on. The lift point and canopy needs detailing, plus the tail cone (tough one). Easter colors anyone!
Close of the tail...

Excellent news, thanks for the h/u!
The FB page is really worth looking at, there are some great render shots of all the work being done.

Tufun,
Any plans on developing a new realistic sound package? I don't know what AH plans are but thought I'd ask
