just a question that's been bugging me

I think I've seen a picture of a white B17 before, but never a jug or pony?

why not have em unpainted silver?

The white IS the unpainted silver.

Graphics need work in your opinion then.

The P51 was the first plane HTC did period, and I think B17 and P47 didnt come too much later. They are simply older models. HTC does a great silver effect on the Ki61, just look how it shines in the sunlight.

I'd personally like the P51-D skin to be that of the 332nd Fighter Group, but having the plane be that of the highest scoring Mustang pilot is plenty good enough for me.   :)

Heck, if HTC was intersted we could have a competition who ever can make the coolest looking p51 wins. and HTC makes it. BUT it has to be realistic looking and so on. no purple and blue shiet. tho barney would work. might be cool but then agian flame away u pigs
