Daniel Du Preez Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Work is progressing on my collab with Hugo and a lot of refinements are currently ongoing to get this ready for release. Just thought I'd show off two more of a livery I'm working on to show the glorious details we've put into this I spent today refining the PBR on the IAEs Cheers Daniel 17 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm planning on doing most of my v4 repaints again but some may not be possible because it took days to get some of them out (like Thai Air Asia Yak Cute which was hand painted). 3 Quote Link to comment

Great news fair play to you lad! Looking forward to the EI livery, probably the only livery to get the EI colours spot on 2 Quote Link to comment

Daniel Du Preez Posted July 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 Hi all, A few more of Aeroflot (WIP of course). John completed the normal maps and we are doing final adjustments and tweaks while getting some liveries ready for release to give the kit layout and paint process a solid run. 12 Quote Link to comment

Antti Salo Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Guys... Huge hats off to what you have done. In another thread I said that I wasn’t quite happy with how the external model looks in V5/with PBR, and now I know what I meant with that. It’s not the PBR itself, but the lack of detail in the house liveries/paintkit. This brings it to a whole different level. The only thing is... Now the texturing is so good, the lack of roundness of the fuselage is a bit disturbing. So how about it devs, maybe a few more polygons in some future update? 1 Quote Link to comment
Felipe Widmano Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Well Antti, I think you're absolutely right. The house/default appearance of the FSL is rather sterile and lifeless. It's been like this from the start, from day 1 though...which leads me to believe that it's a matter of the developers' personal preference. Personally, I prefer textures that add details and are more, well, life-like, but it seems I'll just have to agree to disagree with the devs here Especially since talented folks like Daniel, John, Hugo and many more are here to help. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Daniel Du Preez Posted July 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 Aeroflot pretty much complete. Just finalising some bits on the normals after adjusting the fuselage master panelling and then I think we're good to go! 17 Quote Link to comment

Daniel Du Preez Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 And here is Aer Lingus EI-GAM, still WIP with lots of fine details to sort and alignments to do on nose, belly and tail area. I'm experimenting with a new technique on the green as it is *really* difficult to get it looking right in the sim under various lighting conditions. Let me know what you think! 11 Quote Link to comment
Antti Salo Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 Lookin' great! Just one comment about the kit in general: I think the tyres are of a too light color. Maybe it's just the PBR playing tricks, i dunno, but IRL they look blacker. I think the FSL default tyre textures are about right. Quote Link to comment

Will adjust before release, thanks! Quote Link to comment
Daniel Du Preez Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 EIN EI-GAM is pretty much done, just waiting for some decal information from Dean Johnston to finalise it. I tried to get various types of weather and lighting conditions here, hope you enjoy! It was a real pain to align that nose so perfectly 7 Quote Link to comment

Once the kit is finalised and tested internally. Just today alone we had 7 changes to the masters which meant updating all the WIP liveries again. Shouldn't be much longer.

That paint is so minimalistic and sleek, but it perfectly fits to Finnair somehow Now we just need a good Helsinki scenery - hurry up MK-Studios PS: And of course those mythical Sharklets I've seen somewhere Quote Link to comment
