2nd Skin, Hurricane

[Paf_EAF310]

S! all

After i finished my first skin from scratch (Mig) quite a time ago. I did a pause in skinning. Now my interest is back and i am working on a early Hurricane.
Here are my Migs, they are using a texturelayer from Jesters-Ink for the metal parts. Ive never released them.


Here is my Hurricane WIP, at the moment im using the camouflage of Servals Template. I will replace it later with my own one.


critics are welcome!

the general appereance is good at the current state. what I'd like to suggest that you may redraw the angled panel lines with an antialiased brush (or line tool with aa on). this will improve the end result a lot.

Yes, this always annoys me, but I have no idea how to do it in Gimp

What I do for angled panel lines is use the Bezier Path tool (B is shortcut key). When you go to stroke the path, you can adjust the width of the line, whether it's antialiased, or even stroke it using a specific tool.

It works good because you can always delete the stroked line if you don't like it, and restroke it without having to redraw it all over again. This is because the Paths are saved in their own window much like the Layers, you can name them so you remember what a path is.
