Yes, eastern front. One of the most popular 190A-5 skins out there and flown by one of the most famous of the 190 aces. No reason why we should not have it in game. Not to mention we do not have an all green summer A5 skin in game.

A bit surprised one of the LW skinner types hasn't done this one.  Another profile and some bits





A little of the right side

Compare that to the 22 "kids" we have today.  Real scary, isn't it.

The ones you're thinking of probably have never served

Same thing today, with those serving. Leadership positions at 22 aren't uncommon.

Regardless, that's a nice looking profile.

He's recruiting a qualified skinner to make it. The 190A-5 need its best pilot represented. You up to the challenge, Von? If your other skins are any indication, this would be a winner as well.

I submitted the skin when I was CO of Kommando Nowotny a few years back, pretty sure I canceled it because I didn't like the finish of the skin,
no matter how many times I played with it, I eventually just got pissy and gave it, then again I stopped flying the a5 also.

do we have any Otto Kittel skins?   he and Nowotny were the best 190 sticks, Kittel scored 267 in 583 sorties, Nowotny scored 258.     525 downed aircraft credited to just 2 men.   truly incredible.     IMO both should represented in this game.    that, and it won't hurt the prettiest plane in the game to get a few new skins  :aok

What does the upper wing surface look like?  From the photod and 1 of the profiles, the upper surface looks to be grey, but the other profile makes it look green (which makes more sense to me).

The last color profile really shows effective use of a glare/shadow along the rivet lines showing the uneven skin surface.
