favorite skin?
« on: December 03, 2011, 01:38:59 PM »
I've been a little bit more active on the boards lately to hopefully get motivated to get back into the game. I noticed a new batch of skins have been released? Are any of these new skins your new favorite?

My favorite is definently the blue tailed P51.

What's yours? Picture would be nice because not all of us know all the skins by name!

I havent seen any new skins in a while...but my favorite of all time is the blue stripe on the tail of a B-17.

Its called the 457th BG/749 BS by MotleyCH I think this skin would go nice with the blue tailed P51 you mentioned, or maybe the blue nosed one.

i know. the last time i saw new skins was when i was actually online. but now i dont play online because the gameplay seems to SUCK and the mentality in game is that of a 10 year old playing COD-the "1 C4n haz t3h 360 n0 sc0p3z 1 sh0t w1th teh b4rr3t 50 c4l!!1!" but what that translates to in AH is "W1nz t3h w4rz with h0rd3z!!1!"

There are a LOT of skins for aircraft and tanks that I really like, it is hard to pin a "favorite" skin.

I think I more look for a particular unit than a particular skin, namely the RAAF 75 Squadron and their P40E's with the white tail.  Perhaps it has something to do with them being my grandfather's B24 unit escort up and down the slot.   :D   

I'd really really really like to find one of the B24 skins my grandfather actually flew in for his missions ("Pansy" and "Shady Lady" were for bombing and "My Ever Lovin' Dove" was for chauffeuring Lt. Gen Harmon around the islands).  I dont have enough photos of his plane to get a full skin made, plus his plane was the B24D and not the J we have in AH.   :cry

not to mention the mentality of a <ahem> certain <cough> individual...like other such activities, it is what you make of it.
