Kev....P38G stuff
« on: February 16, 2005, 12:12:03 AM »
OK Kev here goes :)

First image shows the paint demarcation line under the wing leading edge.  This was common to all the OD and Gray 38s.  See how it tucks in under and down a bit?


Second is changing the 80th G on the fly since I can't get a good copy of  GI Annie.

This is the stuff for Headhunter Ace Ken Ladd's P38G  X-Virgin/ Null Secundus.

Note the art on both sides.  The nose art on the right is a well known pinup.  Image included of the pin up.  Virgin is written in yellow with a Red X (I believe) over the middle of virgin.

On the right side under the name is the headhunters symbol  Null Secundus is yellow with black outlines.

I can track down color of the Headhunter if needed.

The paint scheme would be the same with the number 3 replacing the P of Jones bird.  No idea why Ladd had 3 as his ID but it was on all his 38s.

Again thanks for doing the 80th birds :)

Quick test -
Ignore black anti glare, they were there to check noseart placement.



To do -
The camo line on the center pod.
Try tidy up the "VirXin" text. Or maybe a faint black outline to make it stand out more?
Dirty up the 80th markings.

I notice you made the scratches near the cockpit, It would be a cool lil effect if you continue them up the cockpit just alil so it doesnt look like they just cut off other than that Its Awesome!
