Skate Zilla's F-86F Liveries and WIP Thread

Nice work but for the Camo F-86 you must to work on the alpha channel to make it less brightning

Nice work but for the Camo F-86 you must to work on the alpha channel to make it less brightning

The Reflection is greatly reduced/Practically removed on the painted sections,

The Flare/Metallic Glare at angles was reduced slightly, But remains, as the Camo F-86's still had Metallic Glares, they were not 100% Matte, They Just weren't Reflective Polished Metal

You da man!

Thanks Skate! This is a thing of beauty.:thumbup:

Walking around them parked on the tarmac to do visual inspections in VR was nice :)

Lots of work, sweet skins.

I'm going to try and get them uploaded on digitalcombatsimulator user files, but I'm gonna have to divide the package as it's too big, lol.

Now Available on DCS Site for those that Cant Get it from Google Drive:

These look great. Cant wait to see the Fury!! Thanks for doing these!!!

Just a small update...

Right now both of my Primary GPU's are sitting on my desk in static bags, and Im running off a older GPU, which was required for the time being.

The Downside, switching the GPU's changes some system things around and I am unable to work on 3D Projects for the time being due to rendering error.

For the Liveries side, this means that I am Unable to Render DDS Files from Photoshop.

However, Other than the Start of Fury Squadrons, I did start some others, that I didnt want to post until now.

Also, My Template is no where near ready to be public, its a mess of thousands of layers left over from when I was working on weathering.

and here's a WIP from a Livery I Started a while Back after I released the Bare Metal / Camo Liveries for 1.5.3:

Some decal work....

All WIP *(Specially Fonts, as Im still looking for the correct one)

In Game:

Workin' on Tanks and Pylons..

*WIP, Still looking for correct Font and Needs Color Correction, Also since it's a "Mock Up", I'm likely gonna leave some of the decals and stencils etc*

Anyone have the Name of the Font used for RCAF Golden Hawks?

I need the Font for the "Royal Canadian Air Force", "RCAF" (under Hawnk Beak), and "Golden Hawks" (Above Hawk Head).

Otherwise I'll just have to Find the Best match, and Continue on.

Tried hittin' up the Google Machine, Siri and Cortana.. no luck.

Since Jocko has updated his liveries w/ 1.5.3/2.0.2 standards, I'll Back burner a few of mine and prioritize some others that havent been done yet.

Hadn't noticed this livery until your last post updated the thread. For the serial and SABRE you can use August T Horvath's RCAF fonts. There's an early and late version (you want the early one), and although not 100% accurate, they're very close.

For the Golden Hawks/RCAF near the Hawk's head I eyeballed it, couldn't find a match either, it's those damned serifs ;)

If a paint scheme exists that makes a Sabre look ugly, I haven't discovered it yet. Great looking jet.

Thanks for your latest template, new weathering layers were just what the doctor ordered :)

*WIP*,

Still Needs Color Correction,

Also since it's a "Mock Up", Not All Decals will be 100% Correct,

This is not an FJ-3 Fury, But this is One of MANY FJ-3 Mock Up Liveries Coming.

This Will also be the First Livery I Do w/ Matching Pilot Uniforms/Helmets.

(Note: I havent Started Uniform Patches Yet)

Some More WIP, Testing Color Adjustment in Engine At Altitude.

Wow, looks awesome Skate.

Will also be doing a CAG/Alternate version w/ Blacktail/Stripes and da bones :)

Will also be doing a CAG/Alternate version w/ Blacktail/Stripes and da bones :)

Are those from RL?

I havent seen a VF-84 Fury w/ the Black Tail Markings no, but it's an easy adjustment to the VF-84 layers, and it looks VERY good on the Sabre Airframe..

Even the VF-84 Livery I'm working on now will not be 100% True, as the Fury has different physical features, and the F-86F model does not have "Fury"/"USN" bort Locations.

Once I Get 6 or So Liveries that are Ready I'll Release a USN Fury Mock Up 6 Pack.

Exhibit A:

Beautiful.. can't wait to fly these..

Sweet

SPECTACULAR WORK HERE MATE!

*WIP*, VF-84 FJ-3 Mock Up CAG/Alternate

CAG/Alternate Gets her own tanks! (Still Needs Adjustments)

Still Needs Color Correction,

*NOTE: Since it's a "Mock Up", Not All Decals will be 100% Correct,

This is not an FJ-3 Fury, But this is One of MANY FJ-3 Mock Up Liveries Coming.
