Hey guys !!!

 

I need some help with bf110.

 

Il-2%202015-11-27%2008-51-23-08_zpshn0rl

 

There is a flaw along the top fuselage behind the gunner. Another one on the spinners and more misalignment on top side engines.

 

What am I doing wrong ???

 

I am using GIMP.

Looks like your file resolution has been jacked up while merging the layers. Try opening your skin file and unite all layers by right clcking on the background layer -> merge visible layers -> (new window pops up) -> clipped to bottom layer.

 

If that doesn't help you maybe should redownload the template and check if some layers have been moved mistakenly.

Hi, I also use GIMP, it looks like you've mistakenly moved a layer and did not notice that I was me, it often happens.  You must  periodically save your work to a man they did not come.  I hope it's not your case.

As from one of my previous posts I have thankfully resolved the missing textures problems, it resides in the "panel lines" layer under "Advanced Users" in the PSD Template under the layer "Holes" which for some reason are jet black therefore rendering those textures invisible when applying an alpha layer using (what I use) DXT BMP. I do not know if this will help any body else but I'm glad I sussed it out.

Sorry guys I forgot about the swass sticker if you have to pull it down I understand I'll edit the photo's next time.

:wacko:

This is a JPG version which you can paste over the template and save as a dds file if the download does work.

I don't know how to do the spoiler part. Can someone help me on that.

Hi Guys

Spent the day shorting out the differences from Cliffs of Dover skin template and the BOS template and have now got most things aligned.

This is my first skin for BOS and as you know I have done numerous skins for Cliffs of Dover.

However I'm also having display problems within the game using the new maps as the light reflection affects the skins and gives a greenish haze near the white part of the crosses. The spinners also look like there giving off steam over the propeller. If this is a unique error can someone help me resolve the issue?

Hi Matt,

 

i had trouble to get that skin displayed. I remembered there was a thread about the names. You have to shorten the name. After shortening it, it worked well.

Hi guys, I'm wonder if anyone can give me some advice on how to apply a white cap to the prop spinners. I'm struggling to get it right.

@ BP_Iceman - dont trust Eduard decals. It is made with very low hist. accuracy.

@6./ZG_Custard  Try use this.

UPSs.  So it is news for me.  Of course, that deviations from reality always appears, but modelers community in our country (Czech Rep. ) Always evaluate the quality of work Eduard company very high.  That's why I never use their power not hesitate. :cray:

Now everything is fine but this line here. It looks like a shadow from the radio wiring. Start behind the gunner and goes along the fuselage.

 

Il-2%202015-11-27%2014-49-45-90_zpsbsghf 

 

Any ideas how to make it go away??

@BP_Iceman Thank you very much! :salute:

Not a radio wiring but an otional cable opening a lifeboat compartiment iirc.

Mask the so-called "Panel Line Bottom Fuselage" layer on the template.

Reduce the layer's opacity "Metal texture."  The contrast between the metal and canvas surfaces is reduced.  Alternatively this adjustment layer so that it covers these parts.

A very similar RLM 02/71/65 camo scheme shown in "Messerschmitt Bf 110 C, D & E - An Illustrated Study" by John Vasco and Fernando Estinaslau, published in 2008 by Classic.

But, I quote the author : 

"Contrary to the previous camouflage pattern, RLM 02 and 71 colours were applied with a soft demarcation between them.The pattern displayed here (...) is an approximation based on photographs, which also show variation from one aircraft to another, both in the shape and the position of the camouflage pattern.

These were posted up in a thread by various forum members on ideas for skins for the 110, I have no idea if any of them will make the "official" skins.

 

But these 3 were my faves, (last under spoiler as it displays..............well you know) if anybody is feeling generous I'd love to see any of them, there was also another "shark's mouth", thread is here if anybody is looking for inspiration (hope I'm not upsetting any sensibilities, or the devs..............if I am please remove the post)

Cracking stuff so far guys many thanks from me

Hey Ventus do you have any more reference photo's or link to the top aircraft.

 

I'd like to give it a crack.

 

Cheers,

 

Boomer.

There are no, because:

 

1. Its Bf110F-3, wich was transferred from Stabstaffel./St.G.77 to recce Staffel. 

2. Bulls#it. G9 - is NJG1 code. +_M is for 4./ Staffel. But what the hell "Shark maul" of I./NJG3 is doing there? And colors are awfull.

BF-110 E ?  ZG-26.  "3U+JR".

 

Don't know much about this 110, indeed I don't know for sure whether it's an E or an F but I'm sure Pierre will let me know, thought a desert camo one would be nice for a change, cannot tell how long it took me to be happy with the RLM 79 Sandgelb top surface colour, tried all sorts of variations of lightness and hue and came up with this in the end which I am fairly happy with although I'm sure someone will pick it to pieces.

Panzerbar your skins are awesome and thanks for all the info on colours and camouflage all gratefully accepted.

 

Thanks Rob.

Not a problem mate :)

I never use skins that don't have full historical markings, regardless of nation. No harm done :salute:

 I respect your decision Panzerbar not to use Hakenkreuz as it is a personal choice, thank you for the info on my ZG26 desert 110, and your last skin is superb. I thought my 110  might be a later version but oh well never mind I did it anyway, I have forgotten to put the white  "J" under the left wing so will rectify that straight away.(New link for updated skin included).

Thanks again.

What was the air intake for on the nose by the way? Was it for gun cooling? Seems a bit large for cabin pressurization.
