The Mi-8TV2 Livery thread

Hello guys,

 

I have a little question for our friend Mainstay, this morning I've tested your Mexican repaint (of course I really love this repaint).

I'm not specialist of the repaints but it seems that we have a little problem with the textures of the wheels.

In the sunlight everything is OK but when I watch my wheels in the shadow I loose the bumping of the wheels, is it normal ?

 

A little specular problem ?

I've tested with the Russia repaint and in the sunlight or shadow I don't have this problem...

 

Please can you tell me if it's normal or a little bug with the textures...

 

As it's not easy I join you one screeshot of your repaint and the Russia version, in the sunlight everything is OK but in the shadow the bug appear...

 

On the #1, #2, #3 all is OK but the #4 a bug ?

Of course it's not a bad note, just a little question ^^

 

I wish you a very good day and best regards. Skull

Mi-8T in Bundeswehr service as a SAR (Search And Rescue) helicopter. The helicopters were mostly used by LTgrp (LuftTransportGruppe) Briest at the Baltic coast. The machine is now at display at Interessengemeinschaft Ju.52 in Springe

 

Hi,

do you have a photo from this mi-8 with this colors? I think the colors on this painting are not the real colors.

 

btw. can anybody translate this to german or english : ЗА ХВОСТОВУЮ ОПОРУ ВЕРТОЛЕТ НЕ РАЗВОРАЧИВАТЬ

What google-translate says, does not really make sense.

Something like "the tail of the helicopter turns around":(

 

maybe you should just ask in the russian Forums:)

Teuer Upuaut, Vielen Dank, du bist ein Künstler.

 

I'm very sorry if my German is not good but I use "Google Translation" for these few words because you have the kindness to share your incredible and your amazing repaint, it's normal for me to thank you in your language (I'm sorry for my poor German).

 

There's few minutes I've download your Mi-8's repaints and I can say just one thing: AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL work, yes you are a real artist.

I'm a great fan of your work, I'm so excited that I return fly with your skins...

 

Once again a great thanks for your sharing and your work.

 

Bye and good evening. Skull

Excelent job on the Mexican Navy.. Only a problem I found it to be Too "White" and Shinny... is there any way I can change it to a little darker tone.

The Real One, shoudnt shine

Ill see what i can do. Problem is i lost the basematerial as i wanted to correct the shadows since i made a mistake in the initial release. Its only one the main fueselage i lost so it shouldnt take more then a few hours to correct.

 

Anyways i agree Alfredo im gonna make a bit darker one :) First i finish croatian one ok :smilewink:

Hello all,

 

All your work is really nice looking, hats off !

 

Would you know if it would be possible to change the main rotor texture a little bit, for the blurred blade effet looks more accurate ?

 

You see here after blade root " arm ", the real airfoil start to take shape, while on the virtual texture it's barely visible, could it be edited to mimic the real blade ?

 

It is there but so lightly it gives the impression we don't know in which direction the rotor turns, and the blade looks as thin as the root " arm "

Thanks

Mainstay, if you're using Photoshop select the layer the colours are on and rightclick for blending options, and from there Color Overlay > change overlay colour to black and play with the opacity to get a darker effect.
