20th TCS C-47A
« on: April 29, 2006, 04:10:13 PM »
This unusual C-47A scheme was taken from the profile below, kindly supplied by Guppy. The colours are from Simmer's Paintshop and the skin is up at the AH Skin Department. Any suggestions are welcome, as always.

That's my last goon skin for now, thinking of doing a few TBM Avengers for my next project.

BTW Guppy, for the info.txt file, what book did you get the profile from?

Hrm... the navigation dome turned green somehow.

That's definitely a unique looking c47, and no doubt will be oft-used in the MA.

Thank you guys.

Regarding the nav dome, there is a bug in the skin there. If you look at an AH C-47 from below,  you can see a black circle where the base of the dome would be. It looks to me like they intended the black circle to be visible from above, but got it mixed up somehow. As that area of the skin is stretched, I can't add a black circle onto the skin itself and the dome just reflects whatever colour is below it. Guess I could extend the Olive Drab up from the side of the fuselage to cover the dome area though.

Hey, could you put the files needed for the skin in a .zip file? Cause i'd like to upload the files to one of my upcoming H2H terrains. And with your permission would use it along with a wide-array of other skins for planes.
