B1 Bomber Graphics in the works

[Psychlone]

Using Headmaster's inspiration on the AWACS, I have been dabbling with work on a B1 jet bomber. This is my first time attempting something on this scale. Below is one sample frame of the B1. OK, it's the only frame done so far, and it took me all night...

Any technical or artistic input would be appreciated. Especially regarding putting civ-color markings on it, I'm totally clueless how to do that.

I take a look and its nice!!

But I think you need to change you link above to point to B1sample,jpg instead of the current b1sample.jpg.

The one with the small b does not work

Another look at the work in progress. My biggest concern is that in the east and west views, the bomber looks too small. It's just so long that it was difficult to fit it into the frame without making all of the other views small, too. I haven't finished the shadows yet. One more evening and I should be running it through Flicster. Assuming it looks ok, I might try to tackle an animation of it dropping bombs as well.

I'm not seeing the picture display, but I'm sure I did it right... Might be trouble with my FTP, I'll look again later.

Actually the new Flicster allow you to enlarge the frame size (max size is 240 x 240) so you don't have to restrict yourself to the original bomber frame

I will be interested to see it when you are finished with it. I live in a city that currently, for a while longer anyway, houses B1 bombers at the base, McConnell AFB, Wichita, Kansas.

Just to let you know there's a different looking B-1B, but just as good in the Units section posted by Plasticbag. Psychlone hasn't been here for a while, I don't think he'll be returning anytime soon. Just to let you know the B-1B posted by plasticbag looks real bad on that magenta background but in game it looks excellent.

Thank you, I will check it out.

I already made a B1 bomber. Right now, I am working on making a black one.

Good job, looking forward to it!
