Re: Lozenge Camoflage Template Project

Cool idea Loke, kind of like a Luft 46 thing only for WW1 planes I like that idea
About posting PSDs with vector paths, what is the best way to post them?
I can put up jpgs and I "think" the PS paths stay on them when they're opened in PS. Isn't that correct?
Do you use Photoshop Loke?

Greif, you don't need to wait for the game to be under your tree, get it now for free
TW engine-

and the Richthofen's Skies module here-

Unfortunately you can't fly the Albatros D.III yet We're gearing up for a new version of TW so you'll have to live with what we've got flying so far
***also, no AI yet so any dogfighting needs to be done online***

Re: Lozenge Camoflage Template Project

Here's a quick revision of what I have-

4 color day upper and lower pattern using Mark Miller's color matches.

5 color day upper and lower pattern using the matches from the Aerodrome forum, generated by Patrick using Dan San-Abbot's input and knowledge.

Check these in Photoshop and see if the paths are there on your end. With the paths you can make the pattern any size.

All that is known about these colors are from surviving fabric samples which may have change a good deal since the great war. I'm not sure if it is known if there was only one color version for each or a range of color variations depending on manufacture. For me, I feel there must have been some variation. Plus, there is the monitor factor. If you want accurate colors I'd suggest looking over all the information you can find and making up your own mind what looks most correct to you. There are plenty of versions to choose from. The versions I posted are the closest to what I'd like to see but may not be the most accurate

Now get those planes covered

Re: Lozenge Camoflage Template Project

Those are beautiful. Looks like we'll need to dream up a new project because you have this one covered.

Re: Lozenge Camoflage Template Project

I used those very same sets to make some skins for the I-153.

Came out quite good I think. Old template now though.

Re: Lozenge Camoflage Template Project

DAMN! That's TOO cool You need the work number and weight stenciling on the side to really make it sing...and maybe grey-green painted metal pieces?
