Need Help: New Su-33/27K Skin


Recommended Posts

Okay, I've been working on a new Su-33 skin, and I think I'm about finished. Thing is, my laptop can't handle LOMAC, and I'm living away from my PC. So I was wondering if anyone was willing to take screenshots of the skin for me. Preferably someone with a pretty good GPU, like an X800.

 

Here were some WIP shots of it: http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=146;t=000633

You mean something like this ?

 

Yes, sort of. I need the shots of it from above, both sides, front, behind and below though to make sure everything about the skin is fine first, using CTRL * zoom as that reduces perspective distortion.

 

Is it okay if I send them to you two, Thomas and Wolf? If it is, please PM you're email...I'm also using Mizzy's Bright skinning technique so the textures aren't that big.

Looks from that last series that you've only skinned one side of the aircraft . . . . . is that right?

 

 

I've been on the lookout for hi-res Su33 skins with the squadron tail art for a while - there's a pair in my Navy mod, but these look to be a bit higher definition.

 

Will release my mod with the current skins, but a future tweak to the mod is going to improve the looks in a couple of other areas - any chance I could perhaps use these skins in a future version?

Basically. The underside is skinned as well, but the weathering is not as extensive. Actually, I'd like to add a lot more weathering effects if I can in the future.

They are. My skins are only 1024x1024, whereas Alex's is 2048x2048. I just don't want to affect FPS too much, which is why I use the smaller size plus Bright to reduce texture size to a third of what was.

Sure. I was thinking of BSO when I was painting these anyway :)

I like it the way it is. Personally I prefer the “new” look of the aircraft rather than the look of beat up old junk. Good job, it’s a definite download once it’ll become available.
