My comments were not intended to be anything other than constructive criticism. I am curious because I have never seen markings on a Luftwaffe aircraft that look like that.

VonMessa is right about the model thing, I have a bunch of profiles of an aircraft that I am currently building an aircraft of. Not one of them is the same as the other and there are a few photos of the aircraft in books and floating around on the internet. Even with these photos to work from people seem to be able to come up with very different interpretations of what the aircraft actually looked like. Mine will be no different.... an interpretation of a black and white photo that was taken 60 years ago by American soldiers on the victory lap of a war-front.

My interpretation could certainly be incorrect and this is why most skinners try to post (or at least work from) as many photos as they can.

The Nachtjager side of the Luftwaffe is even less well documented than the late-war aircraft from the front lines, so you've picked a difficult subject.

Have you come across any digitised photos of this aircraft? I'd be very interested in seeing them.

"Have you come across any digitised photos of this aircraft? I'd be very interested in seeing them." - Me and some other in another topic searched more than one week photos of it, we have found none.

I can't wait either, i've finished the skin +30 days ago...no confirmation yet. Since there are no pictures of the real plane on the net, aproving the skin should take 10-15 min, there is nothing to compare it (except they have nr.4 of the magazine "Luftwaffe im Focus". If this is the usual duration before skins get in the game, i'm pretty sure this was my last skin, was working on a Sonderkommando "ELBE" skin, but i think i'll scrap it, no use in working 6-7h per day, and then waiting more then one month for a job that can be done in 20 minutes.

I think the duration between the last two skin packs was ~6 months.

They don't send out any kind of notification until they're ready to put out the new skin pack.
