USN Su-33 Camo

Sorry, been sorta taking a small hiatus here:

1. Place CVN-70 on the ocean in the Mission Editor (make sure it's on the same coalition!).

2. Make a fairly generic route, or none.

3. While flying go to "RTN" or "B3B" mode and manually select the carrier (same icon as Kuznetstov) and either go Autopilot or manually land the aircraft (all symbology except for the horizontal and vertical bars are shown) but it's the same as the Kuz.

4. Once landed, go through normal procedures.

5. Hit "U" and it will place you on the launch catapult.

6. Perfect takeoffs as you will not get a catapult assist when launching from it, as you don't have that much distance, or make sure your fuel state is around.... 70% or so, as you may be too heavy (as in the Kuz) to takeoff successfully. The load I had was only two R-73s and I managed to pull up in time, but crashed the bird on takeoff but fuel was at 100%

Hey Eric i love your skin, got it downloaded.

I have 1 question, are you going to be releasing the template for it on your site by any chance dude?

I would love to try different colors of your skin.

If not its kewl i can totally understand man.

Ahh no biggie man, just kinda forgot about it. I had to compress it down due to filesize but the unit markings removed, and the option for the tail "stripe" to be used or not.

Messed around with some reference shots:

Found something I was looking for quite awhile:

Sat down, and reworked the nose art, getting a better look:

Updated the original "Rampant Lions over Afghanistan" markings and camo pattern:

Messed around with more weathering effect:

And apply it so it doesn't go to total waste:

Just out of reflection, it's pretty sad when the missiles are better looking than the aircraft. I sure hope they update this joker for BS..

Rendition of VF-2's OIF tour, 2003.

Looks good. I recommend placing a carrier air wing tailcode on them though.

It's just, too grey. Maybe you can add some different colors for our eyes' health? Other than that, it's a cool skin :)

I think it's okay really, or not grey enough. This scheme has a habit of looking different at various angles.

Yeah I'm getting to the tailcodes, just getting the tail insignia up that's all. The thing about the F-14A skin is that it's not real extensive, so I can take a little time and be lazy on it.
