RealAir B60 V2 (N43HD)

Recommended Posts

This is another aircraft photographed by Ryan Butterworth at Duluth airport, where he is often seen hanging around looking suspicious. :ph34r:

This is what he's been up to:

Thank you Ryan. :smile:

 

This is what I've been up to:

It's on AVSIM Library awaiting clearance and on my MediaFire.

 

 

P.S. This time the panel registration numbers have been done. :blush2:

That's really funny - I did that paint with another guy - but never publicly released it for personal reasons (pic of mine)

Yours looks great!  And a lot better... more true to what it really looks like, so thank you Ron!

Great job Ron!

 

You know, that one might not look too bad with a pair of PT-6s hanging on it : :smile:

Thanks TJ. If there was such an animal you'd be right. :smile: Thankfully there isn't, as I think I've done my last Duke. Far too fiddly. Getting the cockpit view of the engines anywhere near right is a royal PITA. :BigGrin:

Very nice repaint, Ron. It's now ready for departure at a hazy PAPG.

 

Thanks,

Oh yes I understand, the Duke and it's Turbine sibling are wonderful planes to fly for sure, but they are not the easiest planes to paint.

 

Not only is it a complicated shape, its got a lot of duplicative textures.   Even changing the registration on a scheme required changing Fuselage main/alpha, Fuselage Oil main/alpha, spec file main/alpa, wing underside main/alpha, wing underside oil main/alpha, wing spec/alpha, panel day/night...lol.

 

I made some blank textures for the Turbine Duke V2 that could be layered into the P Duke V2 kit, however the hangup is not having layered oil textures for the nacelles which has kept me from doing more T Duke paints.  There are some fantastic Piston schemes that I would love to convert to Turbine, but can't do much with the nacelles until I can get layered oil stains lol.

 

Cheers

TJ
