Took me about 2-3 day/7 hours work! Hopefully they wont take this long next time, but heres the UH1D from EoD i just like to show my new skin i made for it and need some constructive criticism since i normally think something looks great just after i made it but that normally wears off. So what do u guys think?

Its meant to be a Thai Royal Airforce UH1D, donated to them in the 1960s-70s, im not Thai or anything (probably u can tell since i did the Thai writing by hand) i just wanted to practise i might us it tho in a future map in Thailand, that if the new jungle vegetation comes out for PR.
Well here it is.

You could darken it where the exhaust fumes hit the tail a bit more just for the cool effect :)
nice skin.

Nice work.

Perhaps you might be interested in doing some re-skinning for the proposed Iranian faction:

Thanks guys for the tips ill incorporate them into the next version.
I had a hard time getting the color right because i could see what i would look like against ingame lighting.

oh and the Thai flag on the tail some of them dont have the flag, i couldnt really be bothered to do it anyways because when i saved it as DDS it made 2 large squares around the flag reddish, i guess it was the compression.

Just need to refine and detail this texture abit then i might try another Huey or maybe a plane.

To bad PR doesnt have a Uh1J for the Japanese, do the canadians still use the Uh1N? because i wouldnt mind reskinning the PR one to be Canadian.

Yeah i might be interested in reskining something for the Iranian faction but i need a bit more practice even then i wouldnt like to reskin something major like the F14 just in case its not the greatest skin.
