Well done...whats this... no portholes LOL!
Nice bird and Prop-er post!

I did not get the reflective aluminium as good as yours but most of your details are spot on for example the three windows are as they should be. also there is a second Buffalo Electra without windows and with the aluminium strip situated lower down. Both are available as a package in the downloads check them out perhaps you could give me some pointers about how to get the aluminium right.

Hi Thindog

For this model im using, using the photoshop you should see a tablet called "channels", there you will see the texture in white to black tons (for example how much you want the image to be metalic "shine") or not :)

[thindog]

Thanks mate I will give it a bash I like your details I relied on the seams drawn on the origional and I felt they were inacurate yours looks more like it and your weathering is great it looks far more authentic then mine. I know four other people who will dearly like to get hold of your version, if you upload I will send them a heads up so they can download it:D

Awesome!! Looks fabulous - between Thindog's great repaint of JR Lucariny's model and this one of the Team FS KBT with VC we'll have a whole "herd of Buffalo." :):)

Thanks for taking this on

It took some more minutes before I jumped in (we visited a great restaurant)...:D Beautiful paint on the Electra, great job, and I like the pics :)

[fscabral]

Thanks Peer1 ;)

That paint looks great! I look forward to its release too. I shall add it to my Buffalo Colection. (Which so far only has a DC-3)

Great stuff again!

[peer01]

Jeh, there's also a DC-4 and C-46 in the libraries
