New set of SubSim Aviator skins, ideas, suggestion.

[Dowly]

Like the title says, after a short talk with Kratos & Hunter on TS last night, I've started making a new set of SubSim Aviator skins for everyone to use.

And when I say started, I mean, done nothing. :p

So, what kind of paintjobs you want to see? Colors? Any logos?

And to give this a kickstart, I made this 109 skin quickly (in the bottom it says with letters the size of a cow "SUBSIM", but it's reversed.. oops! ):

[Kratos]

giving this one a bit thought before i make any suggestions

try and stay clear of the crazy bright colours

No worries, take your time.

As for the colors, that blue/white coloring is from the SubSim's frontpage banner. I wont be giving up the blue, white I can change or add a third color.

Also, I think it would be nice to have abit more complex skin. Not just one colored fuselage and nose/tail/spinner with another color. Just cant think of anything.

Not spending much time in the air at the moment, so if you don't go with my suggestion, that's fine.

Keep the blue, it's good.

The white should be changed. Maybe darkish grey (?).

Which ever secondary colour you choose, it needs to extend to the wings somehow, the entire underside of the aircraft and part way up the fuselage (aka the V1 skin ) stretching to the tail, where it will merge into the rudder.

Maybe? :hmm:

[Dowly]

Good idea, I'll give it a go asap.

edit: How the fock I'm gonna merge it to the rudder?!

I like the white more then with the previous yellow colour on the nose.

as the logo, the logo we had back then
-
Subsim
(subdrawing)
Aviators

was fine for me.

this time we take a different step, we choose 1 Aircraft.
Your Favorite one.

and like I said on Teamspeak I get back in to making Co-op missions with a Subsim Aviators storyline, (IE : Defend the Subsim aircraft Carier from torpedo attacks, or Defend Onkels Neal Gato sub from enemy attackers:p and Attack the X1 Train with the Seawolves SH3 expansion packs Cargo)

thats what I can come up with now (at work)

Not gonna happen, he's gonna have GTA IV soon (or do you already have it?) and IGN gave it 10/10, the first game the get full 10 points in almost 10 years.

I'll have a new WIP up of what Dan proposed (if I understood him right, doubt it tho.) in a few minutes.

[Dowly]

The small blue stripes where the wing meets the fuselage are fixable, just forgot. I like the wings, not sure about the shade of grey, could maybe be a bit lighter?

[HunterICX]

:hmm: as I'm going to pick the Tempest I wonder how it would look with the invasion stripes. (perhaps a idea to do them all with invasion stripes?)

I think I stall this one to the "nice idea, but no" stage.

EDIT: Oh and that should be a shark. ... well atleast a mouth.

[Dowly]

New coloring, dark grey and "fins" on the wings. Goddangit! TORPLEEEX! DRAW ME A SHARKS MOUTH!

[danlisa]

That's nice. Do the rudder in dk grey too.

That's the plan... and rip off the mouth from a P40 or something. :p Then I need remake the eye (yes that black spot is supposed to be an eye).

[HunterICX]

Well anyhow, when you colour my tempest, leave the sharksmouth, it doesnt go so well with a tempest nose (I hate how it looks on a tempest when I saw some skins having it on Flying legends)

the colour turns out very well thought
