Milviz F-100D is out

[Mach3DS]

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.

 

[stovall]

Very much appreciated Rick, version one was a keeper but version two is perfect. Let's see more action if you have time.

 

[jankees]

I know, wrong model, but what can you do about it?

 

[Mach3DS]

Great Work Jankees! I was thinking of doing this one below:

 

[jankees]

Ha, that was next on my list!
But by all means, go for it! I don't have much time anyway..

However, I do have two new ones available, complete with all new burnt metal textures:

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.

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

Looking good, Duckie!

---------------------------------

Seems the title line got omitted for this beauty.

I added this. Is it correct(accurate)?

title= North American F-100D FW-778_NACA

 

[Mach3DS]

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.

They all do look delicious .. watch for the Hun in the sun

 

[usafvet]

I have seen such nice SEA versions here, and I was hoping they will be released soon.....

 

[Duckie]

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.

 

[ejoiner]

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.

 

[Duckie]

Thanks Eric. Exhaust nozzle is texture 6, upper left adjacent to the stab underside.

 

[Wings of Gold]

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

Anyone know what the actual color of high vis orange is?

 

[viper1977]

RGB: 232, 118, 0)....day-glo orange (safety orange)

 

[Mach3DS]

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.
