Looking good, Ruffy!!

Keep us posted on your progress.

I readyed up the front section with all stencils and the star's and bars. The ohter very little stencils are to little that we cant see them ....



Il set me now on the Wings and the second fuselage section.

How do you get the eagle so crisp, without jagged edges?  I definitely like the crisp, sharp look of the logo and the rest of the artwork.

At first, i vectorized the Eagle in Corel. Then i exported the file to an *.psd file with the point, that white is transparent. Then i take Adobe and open the Eagle, and copy it into the Repaint-File.

But know you will ask you how I get white into the repaint? It's easy: All of my files are in the CMYK Colors ( Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black). When i want to export white, then ill give only 1% black into the white, because corel dont think it is white any more, its another color.

Hope this answerd your question, Felix (when i understood here right )

Hope you can understand it, i dont know how to explain it better

When if more time this evenig, i will do this Corsair



ore

this one



Will see what i want

Hehe, thanks.

I came late at home, so i made just a little reapint:

Navy Weapon Center - China Lake Corsair II



Cheers

For the first repaint maybe 5 or 6 hours, and for the last 15 minuts

I began to make the VFA-22 "Fighting Redcocks" Corsair.

The Last for Today:

VA-305 "Lobos"

Cheers

Good. The Black field looks much better know. I think you cant get it sitting perfect. I think. it's a modell mistake. But i say, that this problem is my disfigurement

I'll set me in some hours on the next one.





and after:

Fear not, I know how to fix that. Its usually because the title of an aircraft in the cfg file has been changed, or removed.

On your computer, browse to:

C:\Documents and Settings\*your username*\My Documents\Flight Simulator Files\

Find the flight (*.flt) you have set as defaut, and either delete it (easier), or edit the aircraft its trying to load as follows (takes longer but means you dont loose your saved flight):

Open the .flt in notepad (or similar), and find the following line:

[Plane.0]
Aircraft=XXXX

Open the aircraft.cfg of the aircraft you want to load up, and copy the 'title' from there, into the 'aircraft' from the flight file.

Mine looks like
Aircraft=T-6 Proto

Save the flight file and it should load up fine.

There are no trace to the folder... i had to do them all once again

Ruffy,

They look nice....better than mine in most aspects.   I was an actual member of that squadron from 1980-1984. If you want an actual representation of the correct CAG paint scheme, you can download my iris repaints and use them as a guide if you wish :

I am glad there are other SLUFF fans out there!

Oh, and Ruffy, the sig you have is labeled an A-7D....The A-7D was only flown by the USAF.  The pic in your sig is an A-7E from VA-113

So, some news.

The last weeks were very busy (school, girlffriend...this stuff, you know) and i started a new rapint. It's a Corsair from 76th TFS



I think this is looking realy nice!

Will start today and i will make a lot of them ready in the following weekend, because I'm at one of the biggest model jet exhibiton of the world, called "Jet Power" in near of Cologne. So, I've much time to make the last 4 ready, after I will upload them. But first, i will start on the paint of the SEA Scheme.

Cheers

I finished the tail (which is looking f**kin great!), all the little stencils and the forward fuse. I hope ill get them ready the next days!  Pics in some hours!

So, i reworked all I done still now. Im will rework the Lobos now, then I will finish the Camo Corsair, and after, i will upload the textures.

THAT I PROMISE YOU!

Super! 

Ruffy presents:

Vought A-7 Corsair II - 76th TFS / 23rd TFW (Tyndall AFB, FL)

Notice:
On the Wings, Elevators, Fuselage and the Fin are ALL Little Stencils, which you can see also on the real Airplane.
I had upload them for some seconds, have fun with it, guys

You can download it already. see the last page of FS9 Military.

News from the "Corsair-Painting-Center"

Im now in the Late 80th/Begin of 90th. This Corsair flew in the First Gulf war in the Sqaudron VA-46 "Clansmen". It has Low-Res Markings (means Grey, Black or White). The High Res (colored) Markings are just for me to know, where i should place the low-res ones.

Here are Pics. The fin is nearly finished. I just must turn the VA-46 Clansmen a bit.




But now a question to some other repainter:
When i loading the Plane, and i take a look from outside, the textures are sometimes grainy (or pixelated, fuzzy). Somebody has a solution?

It looks really great.
And If I compare your screenshots to original Photos, I have to say that Vought and the air force painted your repaints very exactly at their machines!!

Unfisihed, pfff, but the Air Force painted their machines nearly like you did it!
Did they copy it from you? And don't you have copyright? ;D;D

So, i will upload the both OP Desert Storm textures in 5 Minutes

Here is the Presentation-Pic and some more in-flight pictures.

Yeah, i make my Favourite Corsair now, the YA-7A Super Corsair.



This Pic isn't good for seeing the tail, but i will look what i can do.

Yep, it looks as great as the previous ones! or maybe better....?! 

I already asked, but i didn't get an answer (maybe in case of the server downtime).

Even without the antenna, it looks nice to me..
