VMF-512 F4U-1D
« on: November 08, 2009, 05:00:46 AM »
Lyric1 found this interesting VMF-512 website. There's some good photos of the squadron's Corsairs. I've picked "The Mad Cossack" to skin but there are a few other good subjects if anyone else fancies doing one.

VMF-512 flew a mix of A and D type Corsairs from the carrier USS Gilbert Islands from March 1945. This aircraft has the late war ID stripes which were applied from June or July.

A striking skin for a late war hog.   Your detailing with scratches, paint chipping, and grime really sets the standard.   Beautiful work as always, Greebo.

Looks great Greebo.

Mate, any chance you could skin a light Blue F6F-5 for me. :aok

What, so it can't be seen against the sky? You are aware we have neon icons in the game, aren't you?  :D
