You can find a list of all new custom skins - that have been put online by now - here:

p.s. I have to do some fine tuning, but I'm off flying now. Enough work done for today. :)

Thank you for your hard efforts lucull.

 Your AH-skins site deserves as much credit as any skinner deserves. Without it, many of the skins wouldn't have been tested out, or got open to the public to be evaluated.

 Heck, if being a skinner was a job I'd give ya an honorary seat among our ranks :D

Can you correct something for me? HTC has mine labeled wrong. It is VMF-312 not VMF-213.
Thanks

Good show

Yes Lucull, the site is great.  Although I'm sorry to say the small JPG's don't do justice to the amazingly high quality these skinners turn out.

Glad to hear that you like it. Thank you! :)

Yes, I know, the screen shots are small, but I had to use a fast method to make 84 screen shots. I might redo it with thumbnails and bigger views in future.

Also, I'm aware of the naming problem. After creating the database entries, I can tell you, that the naming is inconsistent and sometimes errornous.
BUT, for better recognition in the game, I adopted the naming 1 on 1.

Examples:
  • B-17G "401BG/614BS" by Thunder
  • B-17G "457th/748th" by Thunder
  • Bf 109F-4 "3./JG2" by Wotan  
  • Bf 109F-4 "I./JG54" by Oiler45
  • Fw 190A-5 "I/JG51" by DsrtRat  
  • Fw 190D-9 "JG2" by Batz
  • F6F-5 "FAA 1844" by Greebo
  • F6F-5 "VBF-12" by Greebo  
  • FM2 "VC13" by Greebo

Also, the RAF squads naming is wrong. It should be "No.303 Sqd. RAF" and not "303FS/RAF".

However, my thanks to all skinners, who make the game looking even better now, and HTC for implementing this great system of custom skins. :aok

I have added a drop down menu for faster access to specific model skins. :)

Actually 303 Sqn RAF, not 303 Sqd ;)

Very nice list btw! :)
