JU-88 Skin - Anyone Interested?

Yeah, I've seen it. It drove me crazy.

HTC will allow a fair bit of latitude when old skin bugs create an inaccuracy in the skin. Its more a question of whether you feel the bugs will detract from the finished article too much. On most of my Ju 88 skins I've painted the spinner colours on to the patch on the top of the wing shown below. Its usually not too noticable, although yellow shows up more than most colours would. IIRC the other problem is the ducting below the cowl mirrored to below the wing.

What I would suggest is to paint the basic colour scheme on the skin first and see if you are happy to live with the yellow patches on the wings before doing any other work on it. Perhaps post screenshots here and ask for opinions.

Seems I started a problem in the old Paint Hangar.   

Damn shame, it is really a nice looking paint scheme.

Tks for the effort guys.

She still might make it in-game... I will see if there's any way I can slip that yellow spot on and just make it seem like a crew-chief spilled some paint...

I don't think the camo pattern Serenity posted is right. I'm not as well versed in the Ju88s as I am in some other planes, but it just looks "wrong"... [Edit: The more I look at it, the more I think it's not wrong, seems to be right but a lot of different sources flip/mirror/invert the scheme, so I don't know which one is right]

I did some searching just now, came up with another alternate pattern:



And another (lower quality) one here:



Another idea here (model build)

Also, the profile is an artist's interpretation. They are not always 100%. The artist could have taken what he thought was a good template with camo on it already, and worked on the details on top of that.

These might help.
