Title: F4U-2 eligible?
Post by: whiteman on October 13, 2020, 11:04:34 PM
I noticed yesterday that there’s a F6F-5N skin, which is awesome because there was at least 1 or 2 I wanted to do. Does this by any chance mean an F4U-2 is also available on the F4U-1?

Will probably need to ask HiTech directly (email/PM/call).  Not sure if Greebo is going to know for certain. :headscratch:

I believe so :headscratch: I gave Greebo some info some time back and he said yes to them. Not sure if he did any yet off the top of my head. He will be along in a few hours time I'm sure he has the answer though.

Hopefully he'll know for certain if it could be done or not right off.  If not, it'll just take a day or so to find out.

Curious to what whiteman has in mind.  :D

Several good schemes to choose from off the top of my head.

As I recall I asked either Pyro or Skuzzy about whether the F6F-5N was OK to be skinned on the F6F-5 shape and they were OK with it. The F4U-2 is the same thing really so I can't see a problem with skinning one of these on the F4U-1 shape.

When in doubt, ask the man himself then.   :aok
