jocko417 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Since DCS provides us with Canada as a flyable country I thought I'd do a "what if" skin. BTW, if anyone from DCS is reading this, the Canadian squadrons in the drop down menu should read: 410 SQN COUGAR 425 SQN ALOUETTE 433 SQN PORCUPINE 439 SQN TIGER 441 SQN SILVER FOX You've got too many 433s and a couple of typos ;) So anyway, here's a fictional 439 Squadron A-10C. Actually kind of fitting, since 439 started out as an RCAF Typhoon squadron which flew CAS missions in NW Europe during WWII. W.I.P shots: This is "Fang", 439's mascot, who has graced every aircraft type 439 has flown since the F-86 days. Still need to add a Canadian-style serial number, but I think I'll wait to see how DCS handles the serials in the release version. Also looking forward to an actual paint kit for the A-10 model!!! :D 2
Thorvald Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Love it!

Steel Jaw Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Cool initiative and I may use them so thanx but we're not cool enough to have any.

jocko417 Posted October 20, 2010 Author Posted October 20, 2010 Update: Other squadron tail art added. I'm keeping it as authentic as possible even though the skins are fictional. 433 "Porcupine" 425 "Alouette" 441 "Silver Fox" - 441 has used a checker board motif for almost 60 years. The checkers wrap over the top of the fins. 410 Cougars are next.

jocko417 Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 No template, this is quick and dirty stuff. Really looking forward to a template from DCS. :)
blaha Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Where can I get these? I'll just admit it, I want to reverse-engineer it because I can't figure out how to skin A-10Cs myself ;) I'd sorta like to have Canada skins around, too.

jocko417 Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) Hi guys, With the A-10C template just released by ED I should have something ready this week! Already have my markings layers ready, and with the new template I can go ahead and change the paint to Canadian camo colours too. Based on the two tone low vis scheme in use by our Hornets: NOTE: Only the forward section of the aircraft has been done in this pic. You can see the colour variation between the new colours and the stock USAF greys where the black CANADA wordmark is painted. I still have to figure out how the numbering system works in this sim so I can (hopefully) add CAF-style serials. Edited March 10, 2011 by jocko417
