Are those skins available, please?

Not currently. . .main reason. . .after doing a lot more research on the F9F Blue Angel livery, this one is not close (all I did was copy what was there with better graphics and more realistic colors). So I'm going to redo the BA Livery first. I'm also working on a TAF-9J from VF-23 NAS Kingsville, Tx. That one should be done pretty quickly and once I have them all complete (by the end of the week), I'll post one zip with everything.

Ok - thanks.

Here's a WIP shot of the VF-23 livery. Matching the blue nose paint and the blue stripes around the tail has been the most time consuming since it actually spans 4 different bmp textures. If you know anything about Ito Sans texturing, you know that he does a left and right fuselage as well as a top and bottom. So any graphics that cross those textures takes a bit of time to get everything to match and that's where this is at right now. Once that's correct, then I'll tone back the panel lines a bit, finish up some of the placards along the fuselage and it should be ready.

Ah the love of Ito-Sans textures , that 1 simple fuselage wrap around strip becomes oh so much fun to line up lol, I still find them the most easy to repaint tho

Ah, so you've been there done that, eh UK?lol You're right though, they are some of the easiest to paint.

Yea went a massive paintin spree on his TSR2 n Harvard..fuselage strips n camo paint line up almost made me bald, if it wasnt for PSP9's undo facility n FSRepaint I probably would be by now

Also Falcon as I see you do quite a few repaints do u have any links to pdf files on how to weather paint schemes mine always seem so clean n shiny that they dont look right, would ask for direct links to online tutorials but the PC i use isnt online, only this borrowed lap top

Cheers

ah yes, between FSRepaint and the undo abilities in PSP, they keep me relatively sane. The roundels on this scheme cut slightly into the top fuselage bitmap, so I had to take a second roundel, rotate it to fit the configuration for the top, then move it around until the correct amount came into view to keep the top of the roundel from being cut off. . .oh joy!! lol.

 

[falcon409]

Another WIP. . .this has proven to be a real killer because of the designs that cross over multiple bitmaps. . . ."but I shan't give up, lol.

They do - for both FS9 and FSX.
You can get both at flightsim.

My picture is of Team FS KBT's version, though.

Ok,
That link get's you to the Daisuke page, however when you click on the link to download the Panther you get a bad link error.
