I was going to do a similar F-8 but an LW paint scheme (all I had that interested me) but I got side-tracked by a couple of A-5s and an A8 template to work on some A8s.

I wonder, do you know if the F8 is close to the A8, in that I could use my A8 templates for the F8? What are the main differences, AH skin wise?

Not perfect but Im working on it.

I know you're still working on it, but your tail wing surfaces are totally different from the profile's.

Well hes only got one side of the fuselage done, you cant expect him to have the horizontal stabilizers done already

Lookin great man, keep it up! Love to see more Hungarian/Romanian/etc skins in the game.

Speaking of which- any chance of someone doing a Romanian G6 to go with the G2?

Oh yes. I am thinking about a Hungarian G6 but I'm waiting til the 109s are updated.

EDIT: Uh.. whoops! Correction, I was thinking of a Bulgarian G-6.

After a good long look at the skin under production (Im really bored here), I have 2 suggestions-

1. The lettering on the side looks too thin, maybe a bolder face on the font?

2. Rotate all the national insignias 90 degrees counterclockwise (as they appear on the plane)- the weathering on the wings is going from right to left, and the fuselage from top to bottom. Or maybe just rotate the wing insignias? The top-to-bottom weathering on the fuselage ones may work, I dunno.

Other than that, I love it, and I shouldn't criticize, because its worlds away from my meager capabilities.
