Jg11 190d

[Krusty]

I'm sorry if I see it differently, but I notice plenty of difference in those that have mottling.

take a look at these two I did:




The only major difference (not counting the tail band) is the mottling. They are different enough that they do not look identical.

They're both from JG301 (one was loaned out to another unit), but IMO distinct from each other.

EDIT: Thank you NetAces for the images.

Besides the fact those are 190-A8s, and the D9s appeared to have less individuality overall...

It looks like you need to have the first one at least removed from the game.  It's molting does not match this reference.

After all are you not saying that the skin has to match known references?  If not what is wrong with using what is KNOWN to be standard camo schemes and molting (maybe not 100% the same as the real plane) with a KNOWN WrkNr and Plane ID?

We might have a breakthrough.

The following picture purports to be Leck Airfield where JG11 surrendered to the British.







Opinions?  Badge identity?

That's the II/JG11 Badge.  Right were it's supposed to be.  Great picture Ken.  Lech is indeed where most JG11 rides were surrendered in the west.

Skin it Larry!

It looks like White 7.

There is more than one reference than the EagleCals sheet. I've seen that decal scan, and it doesn't seem to be very clear. I took it into consideration, and compared to the other references, went with them instead.


EDIT: Regarding the photo, it looks like the mottling is light. There's none on the nose beneath the demarcation line, and there's a nice chunk of it by the badge area, but looking beneath the canopy and as far as the photo shows, it's very light mottling (light as in low density, not necessarily color choice)
