4K Spitfire Mk.IXe Skins

[Ouky1991 362]

My first skin attempt. Alan Deere's (Biggin Hill Wing Leader) Spitfire. Credit goes to ICDP for his awsome 4K template.

Edit: fixed missing texture on clipped wings.

 

 

Edit 2: I have updated my first 2 skins with some small changes.

 

          Also I forgot to mention I'm using old sky color mod: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/35425-mod-old-sky-color/

          And all my screenshots are slightly changed to look like my reshade preset: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AuNMhyFUc37KjnVwzMYPBElXlr1m

I only combined existing skins before and done little weathering on them, so I could learn how to use GIMP. I'm not sure if it's ok to post skins made this way here. I contacted one of the creators (about week ago) if he would mind, but got no reply.

I'm sure that if you use any others' work then as long as you credit them it's not really a problem. It's just a case of 'credit where credit's due'.

This is one of the best Spit skins I've seen, you really got the wear, exhaust and weathering right!  If this is your first attempt I can't wait to see your work when you have a little more practice!!!

Very nice!

That's what I was thinking as well.

[Voidhunger 466]

Very nice!

What about some Bf109 g-6 /g-14 skins?

I don't fly german  (nor russian) so no, but i could upload this skin without aditional layers so you can make it yourself if you want.

[Voidhunger 466]

Oh no, thats not good idea. I know how to use( I think) win10 painting program for simple lines and thats all

Does that mean your weathering is on a template? I'd be very interested in your spitfire weathering.

Unfortunatelly no. I started on the skin before that template got released and used some other WIP template that didn't have weathering leyers done. I would do it in different layer but I was still learning and didn't know how. But extracting that weathering (if you mean the exhaust weathering) shouldn't be that complicated. If that's what you mean, I could at least try.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah the exhaust weathering. I like my aircraft with a visual representation of abuse. If you could that would be grand.

I tried and since it's extracted from green background it's gonna be better on green planes. I tested it on my 2nd skin and it looks wierd, maybe you can fix it. If so message me when you make your skin I'd like to see it.

Wonderful skins indeed!  

 

You both are adding much to this already wonderful CFS!

 

Please keep them coming.

 

I would love to see a really war weary brown and green Spit.

I'm working on one for Mk.IX

 

WIP:

[smink1701 288]

That is EXACTLY what I’m talking about. Weathered, faded by the sun, tired and used up. And green not grey.  LOVE IT!  Can’t wait to get it in the air.

Yes indeed, but very unlikely ... brown/green paint schemes were not used after 1942 !

This would be a nice suit for a Mk.V anyway.

Edited August 2, 2018 by Zargos

[smink1701 288]

You are right of course but my preferred color scheme for the Spit has always been the classic BOB brown and green so it's a wonderful addition to my collection. But if Ouky can make a similar suite for a Mk.V that would be most welcome!!!

[Ouky1991 362]

No 92 Squadron RAF based at Biggin Hill.

 

I understand this skin would fit better for Mk.Vb but I prefer to fly Mk.IX.

Another beauty.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Beautiful work Mate, thank you very much.

[Ouky1991 362]

I'm gonna take a brake from making skins now, I get so focused on it that I forget to actually play the game.

[smink1701 288]

And well deserved!

Hello,

 

Here is my last Spitfire Mk.IX skin : the personnal plane of the French ace Pierre Clostermann (N°602 Sqn) in 1944 just after the D-Day.

The real plane was a Mk.IXc with a round tail as many pictures suggests.

Enjoy your flights

@Ouky1991 I would greatly appreciate some tips to be able to skin like you! You camo/paint schemes are in my opinion one of the best and I don’t know how you do it haha, do you have a special brush or setting I’m missing out on 😄 you get the paint looking just right.
