ahh... delicious! :icon_lol:

back on track... 'Search and Hinder' i'm just about ready to scale back down to FS9 resolution textures (it does actually say 'Search and Rescue' though rescue with Vickers guns is somewhat difficult to do :icon_lol:, "Here let me fire this at you, it'll stop all that pain you're feeling from where the mast landed on your legs")
 
I've been putting all mine out as 2048s and 1024s together in the same pack... so fs9 or slow fsx users and fsx fast can get what they want... its not too bad on res, the mappings were very generous... lets it keep a lot of detail.
 
Thanks so much. The SteamPunk texture could be the begining of a new gendre? Mmmm, Steampunk'd Goose, Spittie, Cub, a car or two? Tri-motors, Could be fun in Golden Wings! ;)
 
Glad you liked it :p I'm considering other options, but I want the model to work in fs9 and x so I'm on the look out for the right aircraft to get the 'treatment' next.
 
Just for the test i "stole a bit" of alpha channel values from Firekittens French Walrus and added them to Trago-Mills Sprints fuselage and wings textures, now with shiny metal it looks more "luxurious", also tried it with Arrow and im very happy with final results.
 
Hi all! Have just finished and uploaded to FlightSim a civil United Whalers paint G-AHFO. Should be available tomorrow. Have done only silver pre-War Royal Navy schemes so far although have thrown in a Aussie silver Seagull V and a civil Canadian one as well. I had to upload an amendment for the Canadian paint as I had forgotten that Dave Molyneaux always uses a darkened version of his main textures for the night textures. This meant that at dusk and night Dave's camo textures merged with the new daytime ones - embarrassing!
Will start on the all-yellow HD874 Walrus preserved in the RAAF Museum next, unless Matt or Firekitten have already started on it.

cheers, Pete W
 
Think matt was doing the SAR bird...

I've a camo one to upload next, fictional RN Cruser HMS Caernarfon (Long story but we'll get to that later, needless to say it will be relevant)
 
i have a 'Search and Hinder'... i mean Rescue.... scheme based on the current Sea King scheme done but do have a plan to do some more once i clear my paint shed out a bit... Shagbat is somewhere at the back, likely nestled in a corner amongst a few other types from that period (WW2) :icon_lol:


ooooh oooh... i know why FK :jump: i have an idetic memory when Int. is concerned :icon_lol:
 
Heh... Int. and Wynn in the same sentence... :p


Well the navion was the first to be a yellow perril... so the seaking's scheme is based on it!
 
yeah.... you :p

anyways, that's reminded me it's been 3 weeks since i said i'd get the SAR paint released.... erm.... whoops, Martin will back me up here, i've been busy, extremely so.... with other British Classics....

View attachment 91211

....namely a Chipmunk and Dragon Rapide, seen in the image in the hands of a couple guys at Classic Air Force, who the artwork is for, well for sale in their store... having a few days rest from Profile artistry so that means repaints time... back to my paint shed to extract a Walrus (I found it.... was sat in the Indoor swimming pool! don't ask, my paint shed is an elaborate structure!) :icon_lol:
 
OK, the Argentine Navy paint is done and uploaded to FlightSim for tomorrow. Won't bother with the Oz all-yellow one then. Suppose I'll have to do some camo ones eventually!
Chippy and Rapide look great Matt - how's the Prentice coming?
