If any of these 4 get added, I'd be quite tempted to fly a P51D.

Hey ah, I just learned recently that Flying Undertaker's scheme was done for the press and publicity, after Shomo had completed his feats in a different airplane.  Having learned that, I don't intend to skin a 'press plane' -- it doesn't seem right.

Also please understand I make no 'claims' against any of these mockups I've done.  I don't stake claims against skins; anybody can skin any of these shemes - I wouldn't want to discourage anybody from trying a scheme they are fond of just because I've posted a pic of the start of a skin.  My work-travel schedule doesn't permit me much time for skinning these days so progress is very slow, and I'm still experimenting and learning the new bmp and spec maps.

I got sort of a disturbing pm from a player and I'd just like to clarify to everyone that I don't consider myself an owner of any particular scheme.  Everything is in the public domain, as far as I'm concerned.

Still working, still have all my files.  Here's a not-to-recent picture of "Katydid" with the new bare metal base I've been working on:



I've made lots of changes since this screenshot was created.  Just trying to finish the diffuse map before I begin the spec, power, normal, and environmental maps.  It doesn't sound like its possible to get any of these in the game any more though; all the P-51D slots are going to be full and Skuzzy has said he doesn't to replace existing skins with other skins because he gets complaints from players when he removes a skin.   I have ported over what I can to a new P-51B base; I think there is an open slot available there for a skin.

I'll probably still finish at least some of the D's, but it sounds like there will be no point to submitting them.

Looking good!

I'm sure slots will open up one way or another.    Keep at them.
