[PAINT/VEHICLE] [Adversary Released/F-5E II WIP]
-
Current and hopefully last annoyance with the model... funky extreme reflection on inner front gear door and strange paint mapping to the right half of external front wheel door attached to the gear post.
** NO taxi light on the front gear also
Praying @SkylineGTRFreak might be able to find some time to offer some assistance here
-
soon^^
But afaik the F-5E does not have a taxi light on its gear unlike most fighters:

I believe those are located somewhere in the fuselage and pop out with the landing gear
-
Yay!
I see you are indeed correct. It appears that there are two lights on the under fuselage, one on each side, they seem to point forward for night taxi then sit flush during flight. IDK.
Here is a pic: https://i1.wp.com/aeroresource.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/DM2A0226-F-5E-J-3093-Northrop-Tiger-II.jpg?resize=467%2C311
I just noticed when I taxi at night the cockpit lights come on but I cannot see any light on the tarmac shining.
-
The model looks amazing! The taxi lights are just so pretty! Thank you! The texture mapping on the back of the front wheel door is no longer an issue. I still see that the inner front wheel door has a crazy reflection but that may be caused by an image file in the ytd?
Here are some screens! Thank you again Skyline for all the kind help!!!
@Voltrock TY again for noting the correct coloring of the fonts on this scheme. I have corrected them
-
Working on this one...

Sorry no posting for a while. I have been very busy in real life. I also put some time into a livery for the amazing soon to be released F-86 Sabre by @FoxtrotDelta
Hi friend. I am making two versions of USAF, I based on the pictures that you provided The picture below is my first start on it, don't worry it will get better
I will add the colored star and stripes and recreate the stencil on the plane as seen in your provided image.

Your two reference pics:


-
@DarthPungz Awesome work
-
Slow but I didn't give up... newly completed USMC skin. Next week I am super busy at work and will not likely be around much
-
I have really fallen behind with this project... I was aiming at an end of March release but things got busy and I got sick and my kid had a birthday and we took a family vacation... anyway sorry to the one or two people who are actually following me hehe... I will try to make it worth the wait.
So I did get an hour to mess around and make some progress on a Tiger camo skin it is still an early work in progress but I am liking the look!


-
@DarthPungz u have many many liveries
-

-
@CANAL-EMBRAER-GTA Coming soon! I will release the USMC / US Navy Adversary jets first then I will release the normal F-5E II. I will make a Brasil skin for you if you like
-
@Voltrock So many cool ones to make
-
HUGE day today!
@FoxtrotDelta helped the project immensely today getting rid of an annoying flickering tire/hub problem, getting the pilots hands on the stick and sitting back in the chair properly, and adding retractable lights to the bottom of the plane
I am blessed to know so many amazingly talented and kind modders. Without the kind generosity @CANAL-EMBRAER-GTA the original model owner, @SkylineGTRFreak who has gone above and beyond so many times and especially on this project, and @FoxtrotDelta who has done some amazing final edits and additions.this project would not be possible. Thank you all!
I have some tweaks on some liveries but we are soooo sooooo close to a release.
-
@DarthPungz we look forward to its release.
