This is all news to me! As a (now 'ex') UKMIL staff member, I'd have liked a little notice this was going to happen! just as well I have a day job....

Brilliant addition. Many thanks for your efforts
Have a peaceful Christmas.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the MAIW team (and Nick Black in particular; I had a discussion about you during a recent aeromed to AKT and scored 2 more converts to the cause!) for their collective efforts over this year to make my simming experience a pleasure. As a painter and member ...

Thanks for the compliment. The tanker was a early work. I think things have improved a wee bit since then!

Nice paint, is it available anywhere.

Paul, If you go to Flightsim.com and punch my surname in (Ulke), you'll find it on the second or third page

I presume making it AI is no biggy, but animating the boom would be? (and copyright issues notwithstanding...)

Didn't Mike Stone's KC have and animated boom? I think he rigged it to the arrestor hook key...This was my repaint from a few years ago...

I use a combination of Paint Shop Pro by Corel and FSRepaint (Version 2) by Abacus.

Wow! Tileproxy looks the terrier's testes! I've meddled with it but cannot get it to play for love nor money! Does that tile stay permanently? Or does it have to 'load' every time?

Any tips greatly received. Work's busy, so building has taken a wee bit of a back seat, including my attempt at TPMH ...

Thank you, Scott. You are welcome.

Sorry, Barry, but I presumed you were going to have a fiddle with some of the pixellation that showed with it after it was converted to DXT format?

I am more than happy to do likewise , but it may be a while before release (got a lot on at work at the mo... :D )

Would MAIW be happy for it to be ...

Here's a screenie of my CaptainSim repaint holding up a MAIW C130 at Nagoya.

"After The Battle" magazine did a multi-page spread on Ascension some time ago. It spanned the WWII period up to the late eighties. My copy is in storage I'm afraid! try their back-catalogue service.

Bonus! Would you like me to send it to you via PM?

Nice repaint that, looks lovely.....

Barry. Thank you. It is not the same quality as the Captain Sim version I released some time back, but I think it will do for AI purposes.

Would you know the contact details for the authors of the JASDF C130 package, so i might send it to them ...

Certainly can. it is available through Flightsim.com as c130jasd.zip

or simply type in my surname ( Ulke) at that same site and scroll down the first page to show.

Chaps,
I have taken the liberty of revamping a scheme I have released before for both Mike Stone's C-130 and more recently the legendary C-130.

This uses the established MAIW C-130 in JASDF colours, but with new limited tail graphics and tank graphics applied.

it isn't perfect, but as an AI scheme ...

Does this mean we might actually, finally see decent scenery for Akrotiri? Well done 8)

Thank you.
AKT will be a slow but steady project. As with any active station, and without teaching anyone here to egg-suck, there has to be a balance between what can be 'accurately' produced without ...

My first project with FSDS. Its passed initial muster with my colleagues at UKMIL, (my usual contribution is painting..)so I thought you might like to see it.

JW,

That looks superb mate, really life like and it brings my model to life superbly. Thanks so much for your kind words and for sharing your work. Keep it up

Nick

JW, Nick,
Is the re-skinning of Nick's F15 a straight forward port of POM's skins? I don't have Nick's F15 (yet!) but would be keen ...
