    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Milviz F-100D is out

Thanks Gents! I'm glad that a few people felt inclined to point out some areas of improvement. It really looks better in this version.
 
Very much appreciated Rick, version one was a keeper but version two is perfect. Let's see more action if you have time.
 
Great Work Jankees! I was thinking of doing this one below:

I really am working on one of these. I'm just extremely slow and when you throw in a PC problem, well...it is what it is. :untroubled:

Here's the latest WIP. Closing in on the first one.

Nice Duckie!! And no problem for being slow or busy, I'm in the same boat, being busy that is, but as long as the paints are coming there will be no excuse necessary.

Cheers,
Hank
 
Great job, Duckie. Love the engine effects! Especially the Exhaust petal tips. nice touch. Jankees, fantastic. Love that one. Was hoping someone would do it.

Here's what I'm working next. NASA orange nose. No custom alpha or specular have been done yet, so parts will look much better when done. Still super early WIP.

Just about there. NLT Wednesday.

Many, many thanks to Jan Kees for his outstanding engine textures with only custom alphas added for my painted version.

Duckie, brilliant. I was JUST looking today for the exhaust nozzle dds file because I wanted to darken it. Which one is it? This looks great. :applause:
 
3-JR Repaint

Hi Jan Kees,

I really love your beautiful FAF 3-JR repaint, particularly the beautifully done metal fuselage. Would you please apply the same type metal to the overly shiny 335 gal wing tanks?

Best regards,

Bill
 
Thanks Viper. Since posting the WIP screenshot I had switched to color matching from the photo i posted on the previous page but figured it probably not pulling the correct values on film. However, the paint used looks terrible and sloppy if you look at the super high res version available online. Plus, the other colors look correct and not tinted any direction...so i wonder if this was simply the true color?

I've also done custom engine heat scoring effects to match the photo. Just need to finish the wings and tail. Once i get one side done the others will be complete very quickly thereafter.
