It really looks good. Has Art seen it? I bet he'd really love it.

I would have to say that skin is the 2nd most beautiful P-38J skin, after the 479th skin of course :)


Fantastic job Widewing, it's a real beauty.

Meh... It's... "okay."

But then BMF 38s ain't my thing. I find them boring when compared to OD and painted 38s. Much like 51s, and 47s.. All those BMF skins are the same to be, but give me Gabby's 47, or the RAF skinned 51, or the OD 38, and Woo-woo!!

P.S. Editorial aside, the skin is nice! :)

Yes, Art has seen it and is quite thrilled to see his P-38J modeled for the game. This P-38 is rather famous, having been portrayed on a US postage stamp a few years ago. Here's the stamp, the plane and a picture of Art Heiden in the cockpit.
