love this 2D panel art!

how about a brand new panel art for the CFS2/FS2004 Me 163B Komet and its japan twin J8M1 / Ki-200 Shusui, guys?
it is developed for CFS3 primary, but it is also under conversion into the older MSFS stuff ;)
 
Thank you for the pics Manuele... Here is the new one...

Your line drawings certainly made a difference to produce a more convincing panel...
Here it is now... based on your line drawings...

A quick touch up for a panel I ran into on the Internet... and needed a little work on perspective, shadowing, form, etc.
Comments welcome...

BTW... the original was by Manuele Villa... who seems to have found the time machine!!! the aircraft is a WW1 type (I think) and it sports the pic of a
gal some 2O years into the future... lol

Hi Gaucho,

I HAVE NO TIME MACHINE !!! You simply shown the panel base bmp WITHOUT gauges, when I made the panel I left intentionally my '30 pinup as signature, hiding her in the simulation with the gauge.

Has "Someone" removed the original gauge from panel.cfg ?

In ALL the original panel cfg You can find the following strings :
gauge07=SVA_MVG!mvg_Nonna, 621,598,103,134 (in 2D panel)
and this
gauge09=SVA_MVG!mvg_Nonna, 300,300,185,246 (in VC)

The original gauge contains the following bmp, the woman in the Picture was my Grandmother and the photo is dated 1918 :

:angryfire::angryfire::angryfire::angryfire:
 
Sorry about that... lol

No need for anger... lol I just worked on the bmp I got from Mario... and I was just joking... didn't think it was in bad taste man!!!

If you allow me... I will use your gramma's pic...

btw...

in reviewing the textures Mario sent me... I noticed that the ribbing is WAY TOO thick... the wings look like a corrugated zinc roof...
if a wing were like that... the plane just would not get off the ground... the amount of parasitic eddy currents generated by such a surface
would really impede lift to a great extent... also... the leading the top wing leading edge on the cockpit is scalloped... not very aerodynamic either... the leading edge has to be as straight and smooth as possible so the initial airlift flow is smooth... (the texture wings are smooth edged.. and OK)
However.... on doped fabric surfaces the highest point is the rib... so THERE is where light shines most.. and then the surface smoothly darkens
as it goes down to the sort of minimal trough created between the ribs... this high point point has to be very SUBTLY represented...
in all... albeit the wing surface not being perfectly flat it is not too terribly scalloped at all...

notice the difference on the reworked pic I am enclosing... that is what you would want it to look like...

The sides of the plane seem to be wooden... so what are the little dots in it... nails? obviously cannot be rivets... and if they are screws
there are nightmarishly hundreds of them... lol

A photo is worth a thousand words!!

Now it is clear!!! No wonder there is the old saying a picture is worth a thousand words...

Notwithstanding this... as you can see.. the surface of the wing is almost flat... the juncture areas are very, very subtle lines...
the texture that looks like a corrugated roof... is indeed incorrectly depicted... you have to go easy on subtle changes
in light... with this picture... one can render a better illusion of the actual surface...
I was working blind basically... for the textures suggested a totally different kind of surface!

I will show you in a short while a new rendition closer to the photos...

And.. since you are the expert... what are those little dots in the wooden fuselage...??? they are indeed in the picture...
but they appear dark.. rather than points of light as you had it in your textures (which suggests elevated points... like nails or rivets)
