Introducing the Avia 51

Richards reporting for duty, SIR!

(icon:big, fat, juicy batteries overlowing with AMPS!:icon)

Battery problem finally solved :jump:

The lovely panel looks realistic, cos it is realistic!...as are many of the admirable features the 'Chief' has engineered into this one!

Time for me to get cracking on the final stages of this beauty, before the Milton Works Export Dept excommunicate me to making sound effects and paint jobs for bicycles...:icon_eek:
 
have just uploaded the Avia 56 kit, might be a little messy in terms of layering but it's up and awaiting admin to give it 2 thumbs up :salute:

Click to expand...

John matey, don't listen to them! They're all swigging the ouzo - goodtime!
Pi**ed as fa*ts, the lot of them.

As the 2 Polish pilots kept insisting in 'Piece of cake': "Ees cockup!"

Don't be mislead, they're a great bunch - they've just got roaring hangovers!

The paintkit's there!

It's always been there, ever since it was put there!

AVIA-56 Photoshop Paintkit
By Nigel Richards
For the Avia-56 by Milton Shupe
22/04/2012
-----------------------------------------------------------
Following numerous requests for an Avia 56 paintkit, finally here it is.
We have provided fully layered files for all exterior surfaces to allow completely free access to all areas of texturing.

This means that by accessing the full range of layers, you can now add, subtract or vary all elements - rivets, panels, scratches, highlights, weathering, as well as the actual graphics layers for colours, markings etc.

It is also our hope that those teetering on entering the world of texturing for the very first time, will be encouraged to explore layers, which should also effect a form of hands-on tutorial illustrating the logic involved.

So get some good reference pics, fire-up Photoshop and enjoy going creative for YOUR AVIA-56 paint schemes.

And remember; FS is for sharing - and we'd love to see the results of YOUR work.

Enjoy being creative - have fun!
Nigel (Greece)



 
Avia 56 - Nigel's Photoshop layered version

No Gentlemen, as Milton pointed out:; it is indeed my paintkit for the Avia 56 and not the 51 for which I have never made a paintkit



Very much looking forward to some new textures for this awesome aircraft.:kilroy:
 
Shake off the dust, down to the gleaming metal...

Having completed the soundset for Tankerguy72's wonderful Consolidated PB4Y-2, my undivided attention is now on the Avia 57 fleet of textures.

So over the next couple of weeks I will regularly be posting screenshots as work progresses.:wavey:
 
bloody hell, there you are! was wondering where you'd got to me ole' china!

trust you're keeping well and construction of the Defenses is going well?:salute:
