Colt40Five Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Ok, I am working on some skins, and I decided to add some nose art. I want to use Cyrillic language for the text. I had an idea for one and got a translation(which I hope is right and makes sense), but I need another slogan! I've seen some real WWII-era slogans like "Death to Fascistic Invaders!!!", but I am looking for something more modern...maybe even vulgar. A slogan that would only be on an aircraft in time of war when restrictions on such things would be lax. A short phrase that expresses Russian dark humor or maybe a sense of being resigned to your fate, but making the best of it or I don't know what. Like we have sayings like "FUBAR"..."SNAFU" etc... I realize I'm not being very specific, but I hope you get what I'm looking for? any help appreciated! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Boberro Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Maybe "For Mother Russia" "Za matiuszke Rassija(e?)" or "For USSR" or "God Bless Russia" :lol: Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ

MiGgressor Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Maybe I will just use this and no words: If that's the case, then why not this one? How about that for a nose art :D
Colt40Five Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 Right attitude that's for sure! Somehow it just isn't exactly working for me though... :music_whistling: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Brit_Radar_Dude Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Really nice skins Mate !!! What is that smiling bear saying? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
Colt40Five Posted January 18, 2008 Author Posted January 18, 2008 Really nice skins Mate !!! What is that smiling bear saying? Okay before I discuss this I have to acknowledge that the thread I posted in the Russian forums about that skin got deleted. I don't speak the language and I got the idea from a native-speaking friend on another board. I have no idea if it was my skin or the discussion that got it deleted...but at this point I'll assume it was the discussion since the same pics are posted here and this thread is still up....with that said this explains what it is, but i think you have to speak the language to really "get" it. As you can see my warning level was upped for that post in the Russian forums so I guess it's controversial. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preved The one with the skull surgeon says something like "Death's Doctor".

BrumTx Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 Downloading now from Lockonfiles many thanks for your hard work Colt. seems like I'm # 5 downloading them , lets hope that number goes a lot higher Remember the 346 Fire Fighters, Medics & Police who died on 9-11.......

Colt40Five Posted January 18, 2008 Author Posted January 18, 2008 Thanks Brum. I make skins for myself. If anyone else likes them, that's a bonus! :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Argant Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Great skins ..! Thanks :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

But I'll take your word for it ;) Thanks for the wiki link, I think it makes sense now, quite interesting to get an insight into another countries Internet speak. I think that makes it an even more realistic skin - something that is contemporary and an "in joke". [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
Aim Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Colt40Five, if you want to use "preved" meme, you should use another bear picture, here is the link: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Изображение:Preved.jpg Also, phrase "Доктор Смерти" is meaningless in Russian, and skulls and such "death-thematic" stuff isn't popular in VVS. ...Тут фея взмахнула волшебной палочкой, и у танка отвалилась башня...

See I needed help BEFORE I released the skins....lol Do you have any suggestions for any future nose art? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
