New A-10C Thunderbolt ii airframe project

A-10C Thunderbolt ii airframe project

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Introducing the A-10C thunderbolt ii project

 

The purpose of this project is to reproduce and create the latest USAF A-10C airframe. It is to create a livery according to the newly released DCS A-10c thunderbolt ii

 

The overall concept of the A-10c thunderbolt ii airframe is a heavy weight look. a realistic color, creates a more voluminous depth and

fits new rivets and steel plates including normal maps as well as weathering roughmet and a number of different maintenance labels and adding more details

.

This makes the aircraft very serious and heavy. In addition, the A-10c's new weathering blends very well with the latest Syrian desert environment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All textures and references were made from 3K resolution photos. All references are based on the media provided by usaf.af mill.

The current dcs a-10c template and texture structure is complex and old, but livery and texture are available for users' work scope and can be improved.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Project a-10c thundebolt ii will plan the road map.

 

The first project aims to complete the basic textuering. After that, it is a livery production for overseas expedition units that participated in Operation enduring freedom and Operation inherent resolve.

Looks great!

[monkie]

Looks very good, any plans on applying that weathering technique to some of the older Euro One paint schemes?

Progress Update #1

 

 

25th Fighter squadrone "Assam draggins" Osan AFB

 

25th Fighter Squadron ‘Assam Draggins’ carry on a legacy that epitomizes their Korean motto, ‘Pil Sung’ – Certain Victory from Osan.af.mill

 

A-10c Thunderbolt II, stationed in South Korea, they fly and training in Guam between Osan. the Osan Air Force Base, located in Pyeongtaek, provides the great power of East Asia.

 

They painted "Nam San tower" and exhibited at Osan air power day

 

 

Like the Viper, the race mark is a trademark of the Osan AFB

No "Euro One" is the name given to the Green and Grey paint schemes used by the USAF when they were operating in the 80's and 90's. The default Euro one is ok but it seems just too shiny and not matte enough. Perhaps your weathering and roughmets might make a huge difference on that.

122nd Fighter Wing "black snake" UPDATE #1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm making a new ROUGHMET of A-10C. Very effective

 

New black snake nose art was created based on high resolution photography.

[monkie]

Very nice. The camo pattern for Euro One is already present, has been one of the default schemes since it was introduced. Would like to see how it looks with some of your roughmets applied, maybe a bit more matte. For whatever reason the model has some weird shines on it, especially around the engine naceles which make the plane look like it's made out of molten plastic.

[Snoopy]

Looking forward to your 75th FS!!

 

@lee1hy I see you've gotten door art to not have a black film over it. I've been trying to figure it out for a couple days, mind sharing what you did?

[EasyEB]

I mean, an entire month without new screenshots is fine. It’s fine.

[lee1hy]

Sorry I'm cleaning up seamless now

 

 

A-10 is toooo much complicated so I will remove all weathering. aim to modify ther ouhgmet  (like FA/-18C  heavy-weight)  and release it with snake nose art

That’s unfortunate was looking forward to the 25th, 75th and 163d skins.  What you showed earlier looked great and very realistic for a deployed jet.

black snake is finally finished. It is still wip, but i will keep updating it. 

 

For long waiting 

Thanks  !!

Noticed the file up for today, was it updated?

 

[icemaker]

Very nice guys!

is it possible to have the PSD files somewhere?

I plan to update my squadron skins with 4096 skins!

[lee1hy]

Since there are many requests for PSD, I`m thinking of PUBLIC PSD that can turn only DECAL ON and OFF layers. However, the A10 will not be able to upload because there is no online storge capacity.

I have uploaded a public PSD. You can freely number your Squadron's name and numbers

Hello @lee1hy

 

Thanks a lot for your really great work ! I have a question about your blacksnakes livery and the psd template.

 

In the blacksnakes livery, there is some roughtmet materials and normal maps. Can they be used with png or dds files generated with the psd templates ?

 

Thanks !
