Paint Schemes/Types
« on: October 06, 2000, 12:05:00 AM »
In honor of all the new terrains being released (The Med. and Phillipines, and probably more `various' climate terrains)
I would like to propose (Ask) HTC to create some more `variants' as opposed to new plane types soon.

I would really like to see a Spit MkVc with 4 cannon wing and the tropical chin filter for the hot climates (Specifically the Med.)
or at least the Spit V with the tropical filter and desert camo. For the Japanese, a white naval zero with the release of AH 1.05 would be cool too. A desert camo 190A5, maybe an O.D. P-38, some winter camo LW aircraft for the Eastern Front scenarios would work well also.

You could also add a `Silver' B-26 and an O.D. B-17.

I just thought it would be a great way to get a more diverse plane set, regarding camo, for all the new theatres that are OTW, relatively quickly.

I bet we'll see B-17 in green when we get F version.

If it is possible to repaint a part of the plane (nose art), then a program for aircraft skins should be doable I should think .

Would be interesting to know how much time HTC needs to repaint an existing type. I love this Jug camo:

As Westy said  

See Topic:   "Would like to see Tri-color F4U-1A"

This is by far my favorite WW2 Camo. I'm sure it will stand out from the plane crowd when HTC will put it in. On the current HTC plane, my favorite camo job is on the Italian planes, this P47 will beat them all (not even talking about the current P47-D30).

Here is an another shot, just when Gabriesky did his "prop strike" on his last mission.

 

The unusual green/grey camo, the Red nose/tail, the invasion stripes, the '360 view canopy'..rrrrrrahahhhhhhhhaaa I'm dying!
Pyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyro!      

Hey, I will even stop complaining about the fligth model   because I will be so happy cruising around with a stupid smile (also note the opportunity to shoot me down).

Other paint job I like is a FW190 winter camo. I'm not a LW fan but this one is awsome. I think it's Nath who posted it already. Nath, mind posting it again pls? I don't have it on my HD.

Be safe all, I go back dreaming about Gabby's plane
