  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

I know it's been around a while but i thought I'd try my hand at some metal work. No show birds but a few with that lived in look.

Thanks Cees and TARPs. Just dressed her up for the photo shoot. Still some to do but you get the idea.

Steve.
 
Thanks hertzie, but I cant take credit for all those rivets. They all, every one of 'em, belong to Milviz! If any developer can be accused of over killing a paint kit it would be Milviz. But I'm not complaining. I would rather have way too much than not nearly enough.

OK. I think I'm finished with this one.I had to just pick a point to stop. Every time I looked at it in sim I'd find something I didn't like and go to change it. Problem is the paint kit is so interconnected that almost every time I made an adjustment on one texture sheet it would ripple through the other 5 and off I'd go making those adjustments not only on the texture sheets but also on the ALPHA sheets as well. Still not happy with the drop tanks so I'll keep tinkering while I do a couple more paints. Still have to pack it all up. Hopefully upload by to morrow.

That's one of the nicest F-86's I've seen, in any sim. Great work Duckie. I'll definitely download it. :)

Thanks very much guys. Finally got the drop tanks close to the way I wanted but, unfortunately, the upload will be delayed until tomorrow afternoon. I just didn't want to upload something that wasnm't quite ready. Thanks for your patience.
 
Bob's Buggy

Steve,

Just curious, was there a real Bob's Buggy, I surfed the web and didn't find one. Was interested in knowing the history of that particular livery.

Thanks.

You know, Butch, I couldn’t find anything but a Lou Drendell rendering with the unit, date, and place info. Considering the artist I believe it to be real, but, like you, have been able to find nothing else so. Oh, there are model decals for this aircraft also.
