I'd be willing if no one else is.

I'm currently working on a second 109 K4 but that is nearing completion.

I wanted to do a G2 after that because there aren't any that I particularly like in-game.

Do you have any more information on the aircraft?

From "Luftwaffe Camouflage and Markings 1933-1945 vol. 2" Page 279

From what I can see its +l ,but Im betting theres a < or << on it.

Thanks for the clarification, TK. I'll have to get that book, I've got 'Luftwaffe Camouflage and Markings 1933-1945 Photo Archive 1' by Merrick et al and that is a good one.

Evenhaim, if you have a G2 that you would like skinned, run it by me here. I've got a couple in mind to work on but I've not decided anything yet.

If you find anything that stands out (particularly a winter scheme, I'd love to try my hand at that) do be sure to contact me, I will do it.

As a matter of fact, if anyone has a referenced G2 with a decent photo or photo/profile to work from I'd be glad to take the project.

We used to have one before the graphics update. I thought somebody was going to redo it, but I guess they didn't. It would be nice to have it back!

bump. that k4 done yat xasthur ?

[DaddyAck]

I have interest in JG.53 skins, and as such would love to know if anyone decided to start it or not.

[evenhaim]

not sure xas said he was busy atm, ..??

[Motherland]

If Xasthur dexides noto to do it I will. I've been wanting to do a white washed 109.

[Xasthur]

G'day guys, I will defer on this one. I had my heart set on a G-2 and the winter shot there is an F-2.

The K4 is about 80% done:



The update of the 152 changed things a little too.. there isn't much to skin there so I had to get in fast! haha

I'm working on this at the moment:



I would still love to do a winter camo 109 G-2 if anyone has found an image of one.

Even a standard camo G-2 would do.

Sorry if you I kept you guys hanging on this one.

[evenhaim]

Indeed, that is Yellow 5 of 6./JG 52, possibly flown by Walter Krupinski. The aircraft was abandoned on the Eastern Front in the winter of 1941/42.

The aircraft looks to have been painted in RLM 74/75 over 76 and it appears that it did not receive winter paint.
