==Wiggy== Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Wanted to start a new thread since I'm going to be uploading a fix. I don't want anyone to miss it, if they're interested. I'll post the link when ready. This fix is for the "NewAlum" Livery only. This is not applicable to the bare metal scheme. I am working on a new Spec file for the "StdAlum" version of this livery to be better at all angles. Below are images showing multiple lighting angles. Thank you for the interest. Here's the L I N K 1 Cheers, Rick CSEL\CMEL\IFR Certified Airplane Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 That looks great, dude! Jabara's stories on some documentaries I've seen are some of the primary reasons I love the Sabre.

Art-J Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 On a sidenote, why not create a dedicated thread for your work in the Sabre skins section of the forum? Will be easier for everyone to follow progress and find links in the future. https://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=368 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

==Wiggy== Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thank you ART-J! Any way we can get this thread moved to that forum? I'm such a noob here.... Lol. Cheers, Rick CSEL\CMEL\IFR Certified Airplane Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art-J Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Oh dear, maybe it ended up being a bit too dirty :D? I love frontline airbase style weathering, but I'd be careful not to overdo the black "noise" layer, 'cause the plane on the first screen looks as if someone was shoveling coal with it ;). I also don't think so much black staining is "justified" on the fuselage above wing, as there's nothing there which would cause that dirt buildup in normal combat and ground maintenance ops. Downloaded and checked the normal v2 skin. It's pretty cool with those little scratches, not as squeaky clean and "mirror-reflective" as I was afraid it would be. About the thread moving, users can't do it. PM one of the mods, Skatezilla or BigNewy, they'll do it easily. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

==Wiggy== Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Oh, haha! That's not a final rendition. I just slapped on the dirt as a way to show that I'm working on it for you . And then, yes I flew it through a coal mine shaft. Lol. I'm glad you like the look of the New AL version! I'm still a WIP as a painter in DCS but it's coming along!

==Wiggy== Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 I've also started another thread in the location you suggested -- Ok, I've dialed the dirt way back, and added a little more muzzle flash/heat scorching to the gun ports. Reflection is dialed back. There is more dirt from the New Aluminum paint, but less than seen above. Per ART-J's comments in another thread.

==Wiggy== Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Here's a few more prior to release. I've toned down the Reflection and Specular a bit more in areas, especially the Gun ports and engine exhaust shroud. Hopefully it's achieving the oxidization look...
