26th Fighter Squadron, 51st Fighter Group, USAAF, Kunming, China, 1945. Flown by Col "Tex" Hill

However, still quite some issues with the camo, but those are as for now hardcoded into the AH and can't be walked around :(

Maybe in some of the betas to come the problems with mapping left and right parts, asymetric wing-paints etc. will get adressed and hopefully resolved....

Unfortunately, I fear that hoping is all that is left and it never going to happen anyway since many of those changes would require major tweaks in the texturing system itself and modifications would have to be done to the 3D models themselves...

OK, added the "eye". So, at the moment, the rest needs to be "asymetric" - like the red "NO STEP" L-shape on the left flap (and on the left flap only) etc.

One more "inverted" shot...

The camo itself is pretty simple and not really "extravagant" but I sorta like it...
