VPS_SPIT Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Hi, I grew up with the "Buck Danny" comics books and my personnal favorite album was always L'éscadrille fantôme or Ghost Squadron in it's english version. In this album, the 3 main characters fly Hornets for the VFA-37 squadron aboard USS Eisenhower, in the war over Bosnia. It's a great book to read in quarantine by the way...:music_whistling: I would just love for someone to make this livery :pilotfly: Thank you very much in advance !! Here are some pictures of the livery both in the comics and in reality. /!\ EDIT /!\ I finally made the skins myself. You can download the pack here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3308865/ Changelog: V1.0 - 06.04.2020 - initial release V1.1 - 08.04.2020 - correted nose numbers Edited April 8, 2020 by VPS_SPIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPS_SPIT Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Well... forget about the request :music_whistling: I found the motivation to do it myself :pilotfly: Here is what it looks like at the moment. It is still a WIP. During my research, I was positively surprised about the book. I thought the autor had just picked a random carrier, squadron and livery but This plane was actually on USS Eisenhower during the campaign in Bosnia.

VPS_SPIT Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 Coming along nicely :) I now have the planes of the 4 main characters in the sim. There are still some tweaks to be made but we're getting there. I might release a historical skin for this livery but I need more research for this.

Mrjollyroger103 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 The Nose numbers dont match up. I think you may have used the wrong front for them. They just look a little bit on the smaller side. Great stuff so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPS_SPIT Posted April 7, 2020 Author Share Posted April 7, 2020 Great job :clap_2: I love it :D Absolutely beautiful! God that brings back memories :thumbup: By the way if you are belgian...in what language did you read it? Just wondering ahah The Nose numbers dont match up. I think you may have used the wrong front for them. They just look a little bit on the smaller side. Great stuff so far. Thank you very much for your feedback. I don't really get your point... Do you have a image maybe? I overlayed other skins of that era and they are very similar in size and position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrjollyroger103 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 If you look at the Image you posted of it taxing back, you can see that the nose numbers are slanted, and also that they are larger then the ones that you put on the plane. I figured I would let you know that they are off but if you choose to not change it then thats totally fine. Was just trying to help make it more realistic. https://www.heesters.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/070141-1024x683.jpg https://www.aviationphotocompany.com/img/s/v-10/p235705478-5.jpg?ts=4X1&tk=2vTyZDCEh69Kwe6zP1PQi2HCxSYdmPqzH_rQgMieUs4= https://live.staticflickr.com/1551/24614864043_c7db052f72_b.jpg hope this helps......
