Iwo Jima repainted...now with "test mission"
#76

Confusedhock: Confusedhock: STUNNING!! ..And like I've jet told you on Okinawa tread redko, I LIKE your blended not completely "focuzed" ground effect in low perspective!!
This give me the right feeling to "flight/speed sensation" as (I think) also in RL pilots/fighter may have this equal sensation because their brain would have to select and concentrate more on forward enemy planes or instrument panel instead of looking to a roof of a house or a single pink flower in the ground during flight/fight!
Sorry for my bad english but hope you understand what I mean.. I'm waiting hardly your release of this map!! Big Grin Big Grin

The textures look quite good. Will you also do a pre-invasion 1944 version with a little bit more vegetation?

The battle started....

Skins aren't historicals. I have not the time for that, this is just to show how all works :wink:

Looking amazing, as usual Smile I might just have to do some research, and make a pack of Iwo-based Planes for use with this map (though most of them were long gone or destroyed well before the invasion). SO much better than the stock version, the one thing I would suggest would be to add a little more color to, at the very least, Mt. Suribachi. Right now it looks almost snowcapped, because of the desaturated colors. A little more browns and yellows would help it out a lot... But, again, it's looking amazing as is, too, can't wait for the release! Big Grin

At first I was skeptical about finding a good combination of texture colors but now I see the results and I like it.
The colors of the vegetation and of suribachi look really good.
Good work! Thumbs up! :!:

Well your skepticism was natural....it was hard to find the good combination.

the questions are :

- is it better now than before?
- does it represents well Iwo?

If it works it would be easy to integrate this too b29 alley map.

I would like for my first A to Z made map do something about the central map of japan, with Tokyo. I really would like to fly this part of the world.

The textures on the more vertical faces of Suribachi look very stretched. Is this unavoidable?

No. the texture take the shape of the mount you can't paint face by face....so its a problem of 3d modeling more than a texture problem.
