nice 1 above ▲ but i think we will need this livery as well: :thumbup:

 

of course skin makers will need top and other side view too for correct paint

Hows this for a starter still working on removing the default numbers from the Plane in the ME and model viewer, but its a start, actually shouldnt be too hard for me to finish even with out a template provided there aren't too many major changes, I found the USAAF star for the side, but haven't put it in and sized it over the rondel's yet.

 

 

EDIT: Managed to remove the Default Numbering from the plane. took me a minute to find the right texture references but got it, she's looking perty good imo. Ill have a rough draft of it ready to go sometime tomorrow probably.

▲ nice :thumbup: draw over that raf roundel with the u.s. star-roundel till we got the official template imho

[Ripcord03]

@NRG-Vampire that's the plan, I've got the star marked up just haven't finished my recoloring of the red and white section of the rounded yet, I'm at work atm, will be finishing it up when I get home, more pics and a potential upload of the skin to follow later today

 

Also @CHSubZero I have gotten the markings I need for the Egypt skin, but I'm still trying to figure out the best way to approach setting it up, I believe the Egypt skin has a slightly different color scheme to its camouflage and I'm not sure if I want to attempt to recolor it without a template

Wing roundels are too big but otherwise it looks very good. It also lacks some hints that the ild roundels were overpainted with dark brown before painting the new roundels

[CHSubZero]

[Ripcord03]

yea i noticed the roundels are too big, that was just a first placement, like i said, i still have a few adjustments to do. ;)

[Ripcord03]

Updated the Top wing roundels, still patching up a shoddy camo paintjob (crew chief let a private do the painting, goes to prove, if you want something done right, do it yourself xD ;) ), finished up a couple of touches around the rest of the aircraft and finished up the bottom wings.

 

 

Now, I have a few contradicting sources regarding the Roundel markings on both the top and bottom of the wings, so i went with the first and most informative source i found.

 

If you want samples of the other markings let me know, otherwise i plan on sticking with the ones in the Screenshots, I'll PM both of you (CHSubZero and NRG-Vampire) with a private link to the download to let you guys look at it in-game yourselves, and get back to me with any feedback, since you guys requested the skins, and because I want to be as accurate as I can without a template. (Im slowly making my own as I progress on this first skin).

 

Once you guys give your feedback and/or the OK, if you want, I can/will upload to the DCS site for Public use.

 

EDIT: forgot to post images xD

 

 

[Ripcord03]

A few in-game SS of the skin, sorry i didnt get any underwing shots for the underwing roundel, but i was in a bit of a hurry when i grabbed them so i didnt even take off.
