nice skins!
i've downloaded all and checking them. very nice indeed. you prove yourslef a highly talented artist!

now come to the point:

i shamelessly coordinate the making of ods skin pack. i'd like this pack to be a "collective artwork" of artists in f4 community.

my principal is very simple: who willing to help and respond to my request in time, i'll include his artwork as default ods pack. thus *avoid* --not prohibit-- duplication of artwork.

feel free to check what we need in this thread: and let me know what you want to do in advance.

and, i note you also paint fuel tank and chaff pod, great, where's the files?

Don't want to be a prick here but RAF tornados used the small subdued RAF roundel on the wing instead of the large one you used.

I should have images at home if that helps

But they are indeed very nice :)

Thanx ccc
The file numbers for BOZ-102 and fuel tanks is #1866 and #1865. This is not the final version of DS Tornados but in the next days will be available. I'm allready working on DS Tornado ADV (RAF)and DS Tornado IDS (RSAF), if you want to do something else please tell me :)

The chaff/ecm system for tornado (Boz-102) consists by two different pods, can someone (ccc) fix the second? The pod in the game is the chaff dispenser as i know.

thanx. do as you wish and i'll pick what ods need.

Honestly Tornado skin is so popular that many artists working on it. i'll pick skins according to my aforementioned principal..and adapt as more as possible.

for the marconi ECM pod, 3ds model done but need further lod conversion.

Skins look really good.

However :) (in a good way)

Soon, there will be a new Texture appender plugin, it will be capable of adding higher resolution images, so you can have more detail on the nose of the Tornado. Also, new skins aren't limited to the original Falcon4 palettes. This will help with the tan and green Tornados.

In response to the query about the ECM Pods for the Tornado, the BOZ-100 series is a chaff/flare pod carried on one wing and the opposite station should carry an ALQ-119 jammer purchased from the USAF. So, we've already got the ALQ-119, all we need is a BOZ-100 (for which the Marconi ECM looks close).
