Alternate history Australian Harrier

The Australians were going to purchase one of the UK Harrier carriers (Invincible maybe?), with Harriers to go, but after the Falklands War the UK changed their mind and decided to keep the ships, and no harriers were bought. Anyway, this is an attempt at getting a nice 70's high visibility-ish livery, while trying to be careful not to thread into the airshow specials, commemoration type liveries, or children toys/cartoon stuff for that matter.

 

 

- Ignore YUI-METAL - the girl on the nose. That's just for my personal harrier.

 

 

- This is a work in progress, to be released with a retextured Tarawa posing as the HMAS Perth, voice acted by real Perthian friends of mine who are of the right age and has the right backgrounds for this sort of thing. :) Can't have a HMAS Perth jump jet ship without an ATC that speaks Perth english, etc.

 

 

- The squadron will be fictional, based in Perth (Garden Island maybe?).

 

 

- I like the name and theme of their squadron logo, but the graphic is just a placeholder for now. I will at least change the silhuette to be an original roo from the front holding a guitar, and add space for the squadron number.

 

 

- I'm not that fussed with absolute authenticity and accuracy. Most of all I want it to ooze Australianness and look aesthetically appealing.

How can i ignore Yuimetal ? :)

That was an unexpected response. We have a Hornet here with Su on it. She looks more sexy than cute, and she's taller. The other two look more smaller cute, rounder, like the harrier. Thus why Yui is on this one. :P

Way off topic but can you share a screenshot of this Hornet with Su on it?

Hey, don’t forget Moa! ;)

 

The harrier girl is mine - My friend who is from Perth and quite into the hornet requested Su was put on a hornet and Ozified just a few hours ago in a mad dash from scratch (1½ hours of intense work getting it all slapped together in a first rough draft). Moa is being put on his Harrier. It all makes sense. :) Tall slender Hornet with two cuter smaller ones. Anyway, here is the first draft.

Apoligies for the quick brief off-topicness all. Think of it as showing photos of the hot sister of the Harrier.

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks for all the contributions to this thread it has been a great help.

 

I'm currently working on several skins for the aircraft. I have hit a road block with location of some items on the PSD's.

 

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Firstly, does anyone know where the pole that hold the vane in front of the cockpit is located?

 

Secondly, the location of the shroud around the lower beacon?

 

I've attached some pics to show what I mean.

 

I've also included a shot of the RAN 805 Sqn skin that I'm currently working on. it's based on the A-4's that the RAN had back in the 70's.

 

Many thanks.

Hello Gents, I am Gunny_Mays from vVMA-231. Yes I am a retired Marine. I started doing skins last summer and thus far have completed several for our units. I am also a model builder and have some decent experience making decals from programs such as Paint, GIMP, Photoshop, etc. Here is some of the work I have completed. I am still in the learning process but have made leaps and bounds in the past 6 months. I am currently wrapping up a Spitfire DDay livery for a friend of mine in the UK. Would love to be apart of the discussions in here and possibly help contributehttps://imgur.com/2f44iRz
