Well gents, here we have it, the TX He111.    I'm 98% happy with most of the skin, but still not quite sure about the callsign size and location.   In case you are wondering, the He-111 is what they call a "mirror" skin, where the wing surfaces are all generated from one location within the bmp file.  If you put anything non-symmetrical in that location, it will be flip-flopped on the other side of the plane.   Sooo...... no words on the wings.  Sorry!

P.S.   Emu, you do realize that this was my golden opp to increase my post count and sail away from you, right?    I spared ya for now....     [Tongue]

I would like to have had the TX on the wings, but I think its looking great despite that! Maybe moving the TX-NAME back a  bit, and the emblem a little too. . .for my feng shui jive. . .but its looking great. . .Is the TB-3 also set up like this, mirrored? S! TX-EcoDragon

Fanjot,  thats a good looking skin, turned out pretty well. I have a couple of finishing recommendations but the base skin is tight.  I would like to see the engines and part of the top fuselage have the same dark grey block color like the 262 and (personal preference here only) the spinners to have a uniform light colored band around them as opposed to the FW style swirly color. (Ala Yak 3 skin)I'm cool with the placement of the name, it turned out well even without being on the wing but I wouldn't want to conflict with Eco's Feng Shui jive. Lots of men are going to fly these, I couldn't live with myself if the death toll skyrocketed because of bad juju. Just a thought. On the whole the skin is tight, looks mean and fits the plane nicely. Hats off to a job well done banfot, your l33t skin skills shine through again.TX-ZenBlack 6TX Squadron CO

After talking with Eco for a few minutes last night I think we came up with a solution for the regiment and callsign positions.   I'll make the changes and post pics for review sometime today.   TX-Deck out.

Fanfot,            A few recommendations....  The name on the side needs to be moved down a bit.  Too much glow on the letters also....(in my opinion).  I also agree with Zen with the engine section on the wing being a solid dark grey/black.  I would also bump the opacity down on the TX logo so it will blend with the plane better and won't be as bright.I like the spiral spinners!!! Just my 2 cents.  Skin looks great already though!!!!!  Keep up the killer work!B~TX-Rahman"BLUE 2"

I think what y'all are seeing on the cowlings is the lighting effect within the game.   They really are already fairly dark.  I'll take another look at it this afternoon.TX-Deck out.
