P-51 squads - what are your standard skins?
« on: September 07, 2010, 05:39:51 AM »
Looking for information about squads that fly the '51 and have a standard squad skin.  What's your squad, and what skin are you flying?

Thanks!

lol you two are in the same squad aren't you?   

It's my understanding the logjam of '51 skins may be due at least in part to squad COs who've standardized on a squad skin and don't want it rotated out.  If I can get CO requests and approval I'm hoping I can help break up or at least loosen the jam up a bit.

The '51 is one of AH's premier aircraft and many of the current skins for it don't do it or AH2 justice.   We really need to find a way to get new skins, like Fencer's beauty above, into the game and the old ones out.

I love it! And yes, the 51 skins are in serious need of a rotation.

I always loved the yellow and black checkered nose or the blue nose. Both are right next to each other on the drop-down.

Please keep the 78th FG skin by Fester. I don't care about any of the others.

As far as I know, skin rotation decisions are all up to HTC, but I would expect all of Fester's skins to be a lock to stay in game.   They are richly detailed and beautifully made.   Great for studying the use of glare/shadow layers to create the look of an uneven surface.   

I would also expect any skin seeing regular squad use to stay in game, unless maybe the squad CO would ask HTC to have their skin rotated out and replaced by a newer, more detailed skin intended for the squad.   My impression is that HTC is committed to squads and wants to take good care of them.
