Thank you very much for your replies.

@Il2Pongo, that's a good point!
But i can turn the ingame weathering completely off - if i like. So it wouldn't be necessary to have a fixed rivets/lines layer.

@buglords
THX, i know your works well . Surely i am late with my critics but i don't see
any reason to avoid discussing this matter (didn't saw the discussion before, sorry).

@Trigaaar
To your knowledge - made some few posts before and joined these forums
in mid january this year. Do you have something useful to say, 'senior member', instead of offending me because of opening a new thread here? This is a discussion forum isn't it?
Hopefully this isn't the way new members are treated here.

@CharveL
I assume you haven't seen any of my works nor do you know anything about
serious skinning and the efforts required. Did you make anything useful for the IL-2 community too so far? Did i offend you or other members in any way? 'Your Hello Kitty skin' remarking is indicating arrogance and nothing else.

@David603
That's exactly what i do, using templates. Altering things
how i like them or correcting mistakes, adding own stuff etc.
I didn't make own templates so far. Surely the fixed rivets/lines
are making things easier but i finally have to accept how they are done/appear ingame.

@Voyager
Very good points, thank you for this reply. Therefore i am specializing in making squadron skinpacks (if you like take a look at them at axis & allies paintworks), they are in my opinion much more useful than a
single individual one. Creating a base skin and then making some variants. Anyway - maybe you have to be a serious skinner yourself to understand you want to make the best out of a skin you can. I can't speak for anyone but for the most calling themselves serious skinners.


I have no problem if this matter isn't important to others or if you have another opinion. That's what
forums are for, different people - different opinions.

I'm not a member complaining generally about the new game, what i've seen so far looks very well in my eyes, great job. It's just this skinning matter disturbing me - like the very most of the skinners branch. If you would belong to them - it would most likely disturb you too.
