Eagle, realeastic afterburner cans are not easy to do, externally only, since you can 'hollow out' the can due to limits of the FA graphics engine (the internal area of the afterburner can is visible from outside the aircraft on the side and top views at certain angles due to these limitations, it completely runis the effect...

I think my F-18 had a better ass graphic. You can download the F-18F that will replace the default FA F-18D shape here at Centurians skin repository *plug*. Just click Shapes and Skins and look for the "F/A-18F with canopy modifications" by Jimbo if you want and maybe you can let us all know if its better or not lol it's been ages since I've flown it.

Do you hear an echo here...

I already have your skin, its improved version is what covers this new bird (which is why I wanted you to come back, to better get your feedback on using your skins for certain birds like this one)...

However I found, that at a distance (not right on top of it as here) these older style burner(actually a newer version of these old burner igniters) igniter effects look better, it gives the illusion that burner can itself covers part of the engine burner igniter mechanism farther up into the tail, however these images still have the low res burner skin, instead of the new compressed version...

Kap,

I will post some side view pics tomorrow for you (the new nose gear looks particularly nice, as does the rear gear), some pics of the new gear for the F-15 and some shots of the compressed skin for the burner igniters tomorrow.
