Soviet winter Boston
« on: November 03, 2004, 02:29:08 PM »
I've uploaded this skin to the Skin Department. It is a Soviet Boston of 9 GMTAP with a well worn winter camouflage scheme. I'd welcome any constructive critcism.

I've had to take a few liberties with the scheme, particularly around the cowlings. Each nacelle has 11 seperate panels, many of which are mirrored to areas on the top of the wing. So it was either have big green holes in the top of the wing or do the cowlings white.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Believe it or not, if anything I've underdone the weathering. A photo of the real plane shows areas of the white paint that look like they have been sand blasted, lots of little holes all over it. However HTC don't like anything that might be mistaken for bullet holes so I left this off.
