Winter skins request
« on: June 10, 2003, 05:35:11 AM »
I am starting work on a terrain for a future scenario based around the conflicts during Dec 44 > Jan45 in the Benelux regions and their surronds.

Its a winter/snow scape....... do any of you have historical skins of the following for this period / zone of conflict

Me 262
Arado 234
Bf 109 G10
FW 190 D9
FW 190 F8
FW 190 A8

Ju 52 (C47)

Me 163 patched to resemble a V1 (yeah i know)

Spit IX
Spit XIV
Typhoon
Tempest

A20

P47 (various but any later French based ground  attack units preffered)
P51D(as P 47)

Tiger (Whermacht winter markings )
MkIV , M3, M16, Ostie, M8  (generic winter camo no national markings)

If so could you mail them to me or show them here so I can grab them.



Thanks

Typhoon

Got both as late 44 / early 45. Not snow cammo, I've never seen either as snow camo though. Pics in the TOD forum under 'a request for nate and supafly'

If you want specifically snow camo made I can supply panel lines and weathering layers which should make the skin creation 1000% faster.

I have not seen Tempests in Snow camo either (or any allied AC of that period for that matter) however if your skins are from those 5 tempest squadrons based in velkvok then I would be very interested.......they are very impressive skins........

Tempest is 486sqn, Aachen based, Xmas 1944.

Item of interest here: http://user.tninet.se/~ytm843e/stafford.htm

Typhoon I did as a request. 137sqn. Can't remember the date or location although a very brief search on the web seems to indicate them being based at Manston in early to autumn 1944.

Changing the serials and code letters isn't a huge job on either skin. I don't really have time to go looking though. If you'd like them as is, no problem, I can also change them in a couple of hours to meet your requirements. I have the full range of D-Day stripes as layers, the codes and serials are not much more effort.

A date, serial and code is all I need and I can have them for you by Sunday at the latest.

Any Volkel based unit would be fine.......486 would be neat Staffords particularly:)
