Request for personalized skins

:FI:Dr_Strangelove · Post by **:FI:Dr_Strangelove** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 10:25 pm

I would love to start running personalized skins for myself.

Maybe Falcon or whoever else is doing skins these days can send me over the .psd files so I can edit in my name myself?

Or if you have the time or do not wish to share, I would be greatful to just have them done for me.

I am interested in pretty much any plane available.

any plane?

how 'bout my famous rocket penguin?

I don't know about the rest of the skinners,

but if you describe a SPECIFIC plane model, a SPECIFIC camo style or paint scheme, and the SPECIFICS on your personal bits to me,

...

wait ... that didn't sound right.

...

gah!

anyway, I'll make some for you ONE at a TIME ...

look thru the "Skinner's" forum or the "Downloads" section for designs that are readily available, or describe something new that you might like.

LOL, yes I can be a pain in the ass I know!

Since we are currently running the Rab/Ard Campaign maybe an SBD3 would be a nice start for a new skin. Maybe even the F4.

A cool idea would be my name on the plane of course "Dr Strangelove" as well as a picture of some sort either on the nose or tail or even undercariage. Hard for me to picture as I have never done a skin before.

Some Picture ideas:

Or maybe no picture, I do not know. Just some thoughts.

As far as other planes I am looking for.... probably Hurricane since it looks like we will be doing BoB campaign soon.

Anything would be appreciated and I would be indebted if you are kind enough to help me out

I have just one old SBD template that I could modify for you, (it prolly needs an little updating) and at least one gray Wildcat that I made available to the guys a few years back.

I still don't have a Falcon-made Hurri yet, but there should be other skinners here who may be able to help you there.*

I'll get to work on them tomorrow. It may take a few days cuz I'm still not comfortable (or totally happy) with my new PaintShop Pro X.

* I do have a Hurri template made by one of the guys from the UBI forum that I can use if no one else has a nice one available here.

Thanks Falcon,

and Nappy...... you have just watched my favorite movie of all time. Every time I pop it in the DVD my wife just gives me funny looks because she just doesn't get it. But thats ok, she doesn't have to

There are so many great lines....

"Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops. Uh, depending on the breaks."

and my favorite by far:

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room. "

"...jet exhaust, fryin chickens in the barnyard." Great movie. Going out today to find a copy.

" ... so let's get going, there's no other choice. God willing, we will prevail, in peace and freedom from fear, and in true health, through the purity and essence of our natural... fluids."

and 15000 other golden lines in my favorite movie of alllll time too.

Here's my Wildcat in gray/gray paint.

It needs some updating and some line adjustment, but I'm totally busy and ... like ... it's free?

Nose art is coming ...

Hey doc, I uploaded, with the help of Sneaky, several FI skins to your ftp site. You should be able to use those and put your name and number on them. I could probably do the work myself if time is not of the essence.

Thanks Noter. I honestly don't know my head from my ass when it comes to skinning. If there was a tutorial somewhere to show me where to put my name that would be slick. Other than that, thanks for the uploads, I will be sure to use them even without my name for now.
