B2 and B24 skins

[nautil]

Here is the result of my first attempt in unit reskinning. i took generic skins of bomber and stealth bomber and made two flavor units for american civilization. One is b24 Liberator ,which i hope, look quite authentic, since the original model is very suitable for this purpose.First i was thinking to make a B17 "Flying Fortress" out of old skin, but the model contradicts historical authenticity. But now there is hope that due to efforts of such comrades as Rabbit,White( if i'm not mistaken he was first to intergrate a new model into the game, f-15 eagle) and others we will soon see plenty of new models.
Well , the second skin is a widely known B2 Spirit, the skin was made by simple inversion of the original one. As for it's black colour, all my meager knowledge about B2 is based on photos and info found in the internet. On some pictures i saw a distinct dark black colour while on others the plane was gray. So i decided to make the skin for this unit also black.Though it may look not so authentic, it still looks cool.
Now i try to redisign some other modern units and look forward till someone, more experienced than me, makes new models.

Good one nautil

It's good to see some people here from Israel, I myself lived there for an extended period of time

 

[Half Fast]

I especially like the B-24.

Well I like the b-24 very much!
About B2's their colour is a kind of anthracite (at least everything I've seen so far) i.e. a dark grey/black mixture. (It matterts how tje light shines on the surface). The dark colour is alos a kind of logic if you think of it as a kind of radiation absorber (well in in fact to absorb the radar rays)

Both look very good, and the Lancaster does look a lot like the Liberator.

Sorry to revive this thread. But I searched a long time for the model of the B2, but I can't find it :/

Where can I find it? Not only reskins

 

[mechaerik]

Its only a reskin of the regular Bomber in Civ4, its not a new model.

 

[StrikerGER]

I know. But there is no B2 model in my Civ folder. Perhaps it's sounds I just don't find it, but really, there is no one

They are there, you just don't see them.
In the Civilization\Assets folder are 4 .fpk files.
These files contain all the art. You can open them with this tool here. Then you'll also be able to find the models.

 

[StrikerGER]

Ah okay, I didn't know that. Thank you!

Also, this "B2" unit is classed as "Stealth Bomber" in Civ4.
