Here's a few screens of a first pass with introducing a Spec into the texture. The tail chevrons need more precise alignment, ignore that for now. I also need to add a few more things, most noteably the black windscreen and canopy rail.

Beautiful skin! Did Bundeswehr use the same helmets as USAF too? Just noticed the USAF on the front of his helmet. Not nit picking by any bit as she's a beauty, just didn't know if it was overlooked or historically accurate? I would use it regardless.
 
It's not finished yet Matt. The helmet will be changed to a plain white one unless I can find a decent image of something accurate for the GAF. Thank you! Here's a few with updated unit text.

I can?t understand why anyone would post a real-world picture to illustrate their repaint...
:)
This is amazing. Perhaps I need to get into DCS... how does it perform in comparison to P3D v4?

Back to JA-113...

Thank you Andrew. DCS performs much better than P3D for me. It's very stable, and the graphics engine is very modern and very efficient at using your hardware to it's Max capabilities no matter what level you have. My computer is 5 years old and I'm running aGTX 770... Nothing special.

Back to the paint....

I'm still not clear on how to remove the White border around the glass? I've figured out the alignment for the tail flash flags. See pic 2, top flag.

Other than alignment and changing the helmet, I'm going to refine the drop tanks slightly...
