Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
That makes the frame a bit easier to make. It can still be a pain in the ass at times, but still doable.
On that note, I can't wait to paint every color in the freaking rainbow on it. I feel a bit like an expectant father waiting for it. Not that I'd jump off a bridge for it or anything, but I do try and check for anything new.

Don't see why/how it'd be a pain in the ass or why there needs to be an outline

To be quite honest, I don't know if you'll like these or not, 'cause most simmers appear to be avid supporters of the copypasta school of painting. I think they're quite all right.
Oh, and I've got to make a confession: I might be to blame the A380's taking so long. I'm quite literally the embodiment of procrastination, and I've been holding everybody up with the textures.
Oh my!!
It feels like I can touch it!!
May I touch the A380?!!
Great job!!
I don't blame you!! Take your time!! Guys like me who want to see THAT resaults can wait for long long long long time!
Cheers

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
As the one who seems to be the one who unintentionally influences the A380 like the moon influences the ocean tides, I'm going to California for a week in July. Start cracking the whip so y'all can make sure it's released when I'm gone, but hey I'm getting on a Delta 777-200LR to LAX from DTW so it's all good.
EDIT:
...and yes that camera that follows me shall be coming too. My uncle may wonder why it's on his Jeep though.

The Lufthansa looks nice. The font near the front looks a little thin for my taste, but that's just me.
Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
Looks very nice indeed!!
Too bad we cannot simulate the window shades to open and close!! :lol:

well the font is in the right place and size, but just too thin really. It just needs to be a little bit bolder.

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
Yea I know. It's WIP and it was originally done a little broader but I didn't like the L getting deformed cos of the shape of the crown area that causes it to stretch
also no good close shots of it were available till earlier this week for me
to detail not just this but also other parts
eventually it will be sorted out

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
For all it's worth:
As the A380 nears its release, I am heading up to the cabin next weekend for a little boating trip. There is where I first heard of the A380 project. As one who is jokingly referred to as the "one with the hidden camera" and all, it now brings things full circle sort of.
To my followers:
If nothing changes by the time I return, be afraid. Be very afraid!! :lol:

By all means say what you want to say, but be precise or clear about it..Aeroflot2685 wrote:ok keep doing it, i say nothing ^^

I'm guessing you mean the stickers/warning labels etc.. those havent been done yet.. this was just a check to see the colour tones etc..
So if you have to say things, it would indeed help if you were clear about the things you're talking about.
Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
ok, ^^ i mean the stickers like "RR" and warning lines and the flaps should also be white.

erm.. D-AIMA does NOT carry the RR stickers anymore..
the flap canards are not white if im not mistaken, the underside of the wings is painted the same colour as the belly stripe..

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
Yes well right now my focus is not on detailing the paint. It's mainly achieving the right color tone n balance with the shading etc.
A while back I mentioned LH is indeed hard to do because the grey that LH uses appears a different hue under different lighting conditions. To get that right takes some work and a lot of fine tuning. Some might think it's not that imp but I prefer to take my time on my paints. Sometimes it might look ok on the belly but not on the engines etc. Anyways. I think I've made good progress for today. Tmrw will take it further still.

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
^^ probably the angle then.
now the lighting mask can...oh nevermind. :lol:
and for whatever it's worth, there is some gray on the inner side of the wingtip fences below the part where it connects with the wing.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/axel_j/4623204357/sizes/o/
I know it is kind of hard to see in that photo, but it is there. I have seen photos of that being the case on their A32X fleet so I am guessing it is the same for their A380s.

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
It's hard to tell if thats the color or just shadow due to the less than ideal lighting. It may be on the narrobodies but im not too convinced by that shot it's on the A380.
Nevertheless it could be a possibility and will keep it on my list of things to check

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
I know that the photo was at such an angle to make it hard to tell, and I know their first A380 arrived in Frankfurt in crappy weather last Wednesday, but this photo seems pretty convincing, Sheldon.

Now I'm a little winded out regarding D-AIMA. I wonder if Mr. Travendale started painting Wunala yet. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
LH is looking nice Trance...
If I may ask, what's the status on Tom's EK & SQ paints, they must be extremely close to complete now?
SQ is the one which will give me (personally) many hours of enjoyment.

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
I would say that's pretty conclusive.... weird that it's only inboard and not out!? Gorgeous work, it's gonna be beautiful when she is finally rolled out of the 'virtual' Finkenwerder hangar

Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
Please don't take this the wrong way, because I'm just curious - which paints are finished?
Re: Random W.I.P Screenshots
ok my favorite are Emirates and Lufthansa, because i live in Frankfurt.
And i thought it would be funny, if i make an A380 in "Ukraine international airlies" colours, because i fly very often with this airline to Kiev(UKBB) or Lviv(UKLL)
and i was born in Kiev.
so here it is:

Hello, I'm new here and I read all thread about A380, but I can't find any information about the heat effect.
Will be heat effects included ?
