Red 30

Thanks to Lyric1 and Devil for supplying me photos of this aircraft.

This 286 IAP I-16 was flown by Lt Ivan Bratushki in the Lake Lagoda area near Leningrad during the summer of 1942.

Incredible!

With all of the problems with red bleeding, you deliver such clean and crisp red features.

The red bleed issue affects some bordering colours more than others, I've not done anything special to prevent it on this skin.  Getting the fuselage stars and squadron numbers to look right on the heavily distorted rear fuselage texture of the I-16 was really difficult though.

HOw would it turn out if you placed a 1 px black border around the red? Does the bleed-over still occur?

It can. I've had markings where a block of yellow with surrounded with a 1 pixel black line had the yellow bleed over the line. This was remedied by shifting the placement of the marking a pixel or two.

I think when I get back to flying I've found my plane and skin of choice. As always Greebo your work is always outstanding.

Looks great!  :aok
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
