ICDP Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) I have just about got the main panel lines and rivets done, apart from some minor tweaks to fix some joins. I will see how I progress with this over the next few nights to decide if I can get the time to finish it and do it justice. If I don't I can make what I have done at that point available to whoever wants to continue. Only one screenshot so far folks. Edited January 3, 2017 by ICDP 8
ICDP Posted December 30, 2016 Author Posted December 30, 2016 Some progress being made. I have noticed the basic model has some minor texture warping but nothing too serious.
Boomerang Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Keep up the good work, it's looking fantastic!
ICDP Posted January 2, 2017 Author Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Only the alpha channel to mess with now and a quick cleanup of the layers (Adobe CS5) and it will be ready for upload. All rivets and panel lines and details are 4096x4096 New weathering and any original I kept (only a few layers) weathering has been updated to 4096x4096 New 4096x4096 markings and stencils The screens I am uploading do not do the 4096x4096 textures justice. It looks so much better in game. Edited January 2, 2017 by ICDP 4
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Looks fantastic, only issue I find is the writing in the back end hole of the fuselage. The writing above it says "Hier aufholen" but should be "Hier aufbocken". This is what a bock is: Edited January 3, 2017 by 6./ZG26_5tuka
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 *coughcough* "Hier aufbocken" Yea thx, was late and I pressed send reply too quickly. Hopefully the OP has got it right. Also I want to say thumbs up for your quick progress.
ICDP Posted January 3, 2017 Author Posted January 3, 2017 I had looked for an edit forum title option but could not find it? If there isn't one can a mod fix the thread title to say 109a please? 109 A? Looks fantastic, only issue I find is the writing in the back end hole of the fuselage. The writing above it says "Hier aufholen" but should be "Hier aufbocken". This is what a bock is: I had seen images with both aufholen and aufbocken in that location but can easily change this. Thanks
6./ZG26_5tuka Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) I had seen images with both aufholen and aufbocken in that location but can easily change this. Thanks Looking further into the subject I couldn't find a picture clearly depicting the correct term but the manual indicates aufbocken is the right one (also used for other aircraft like the Ju-87). Most pictures I came across didn't have it at all. Another thing I noticed is that your writing might be too large as shown by this picture: You can just about see the writing and it barely 2 times as wide as the hole cover plate. Again you might have different sources which is fine, just sharing my findings on the subject I had looked for an edit forum title option but could not find it? You can change the thread title by going to your first post and pressing 'edit'. Edited January 3, 2017 by 6./ZG26_5tuka
Jason_Williams Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Looking very nice. More pics please! Jason

No worries, glad for the input. I followed the same sizes as the original template/paintkit but my pictures do show the stenciling is smaller. I have resized the stenciling to be more accurate.
ICDP Posted January 3, 2017 Author Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Looking very nice. More pics please! Jason As requested 5tuka and FluGb0t, thank you for your input. I have resized the stenciling to a more accurate size. I have finished the alpha and after some experimenting I have it looking matt while keeping the reflective sheen at extreme angles. I am just putting the finishing touches to the markings and camo layers and it will be uploaded. Edited January 3, 2017 by ICDP 11
Finkeren Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Man, that's a good job! Those 4K skins makes you appreciate the great 3D models so much more.
ICDP Posted January 5, 2017 Author Posted January 5, 2017 I have the paintkit ready for upload but have asked Jason if it is OK for me to upload it with full swastika decals or not. Once I get word I can provide a link. Here is a few screenshots of Nowotny's Fw190-a5, made using the 4k paintkit. You can download the Nowotny 190-a here. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zyvdkt23tzp411e/FW190a3_4096_Nowotny.zip?dl=0 6
