That one is directed more to you both Maties , we both wanting metal material SAC .. Ive still to create the compression texture between the aluminum and magnesium aluminum from the crew quarters and the bomb-bay area ... biggest part is creating metal texture for the wing surfaces.

[Ian Warren]

I took another twist with the polish, If we cannot get a specular metal look or shine, we have to do it the historical way and create a texture.

The wings are going to be the interesting trick , Hells - may make the Captain look into the earlier 52 models

Come on skinman ..... you can do it ,

Will Do .. pulled all my B-52 books off the shelf, surprising the many polished metal and the various applications .. course in gos the magnesium aluminum texture so be a little artistic licence.

I hope you're not trying to tempt me with the B52. You know I can't resist once I've tasted them . . . Obviously I will have to keep away from your place for a bit in an effort to try and preserve my wallet's meager contents!

Maybe this month a possible win in the Screenie comp ... Gav, Gavin aka: 'kahu' modified his Ohakea scenery to service a small fleet of Stratofortress's , only had four in a MP , only B-52 base in New Zealand
