Will you plan on making the 2017 design legs for BFS?

You mean those? I'm not sure SpaceX even know what those legs are going to look like. The ones in the render just look like placeholders to me.

What are BO parts?

That's Blue Origin, Jeff Who's company.

Ah, thought of that one, just didn't remember the name

Haha, I like the second crane , that wasn't in the original picture. Unfortunately, this isn't possible with Gojira, since the door opens the other way around. Would love to have something like this!

Also a happy April Fools to you mate

Taking a different approach to texturing. More hand made, more colors, more wear and tear. If I understand correctly the new system allows for easy switching of color variants and I want to make use of that.

I watched that for about a minute wondering how many times you were going to thrust up into the air and come down.... D'oh!

[viperwolf]

Looking really good!

I've been using a few of the KRE parts in my latest videos and have had a few people query me about not having the titanium (black) grid fins on my craft.

I can't seem them in my parts list (only white/grey ones). I can see that there are black fins in the screenshot from the install instructions screen. Do I need some other mod config to get the black fins?

[EmbersArc]

@marcushouse They should be there in the latest update, no additional configs required. Can you check the log for an error related to the titanium fins? What KSP version are you using?

[marcushouse]

I've got it installed with CKAN, it hasn't prompted for an update in a long time but I am running KSP 1.2.2. 
CKAN says I'm running KRE version 2.3.2 which does look old. Can I not get the titanium grid fins on 1.2.2? 
 

[EmbersArc]

@marcushouse You will need the latest version of KRE. It may work with 1.2.2 but I can't say for sure. If it doesn't then you can just take the grid fins from the latest version and make your own Frankenstein version of KRE. I can also recommend the latest version because of the revamped F9 legs. You might have to take those from version 2.6.0 or so because the 2.6.2 ones use some features from KSP 1.4. which might not work.

when will you update the ckan version?

[EmbersArc]

Last WIP picture of the new legs. What color variants do you want to see besides white/orange and white/black?

When I release the next version. So that means soon^TM.

[Bottle Rocketeer 500]

@EmbersArc Maybe the Soviet-style "gray and orange".

White and navy. Gotta have those SpaceX colors fam

[sibaar]

This is still 1.4.1

Then why has the title been changed to 1.4.2?

[EmbersArc]

Okay I went back and pretty much started over with the texture. Yeah I know. Revamped the revamp.

I want to find a consistent art style here to apply to the other parts in the future. But the good news is that I think I've found it. Here is a comparison with the old part and some color variants:

@Bottle Rocketeer 500 Is the second one somewhat close to what you were imagining?

I personally like the last one. Might make that the default.

[Bottle Rocketeer 500]

@EmbersArc Pretty close, the orange in perfect, but can you try to make the gray more like drab green, like on the stock one?

Updated the picture with another one. The orange in that one is stock as well.

[Bottle Rocketeer 500]

@EmbersArc If you are talking about the second one from the right, then it's perfect!

[infinite_monkey]

Is it just the colors or the shape as well? Will it still fit Tundra Exploration's BFS?

Good, just finishing up BepiColombo and waiting for 1.4.3.
