Very nice, Nopoop, looks just right. One thing though, perhaps you could add a shadow below the canopy frame?

Do you have a pic of the real plane.  I can't seem to find one on the Web.

Good idea Greebo thanks, it's on my fiddle list for the weekend. Fiddlin is the fun part.

Thanks guys.

Nopoop,

Great skin once again!  Was curious if any of your skins have been accepted.  Was hoping that another batch would be pushed out soon... you wouldn't have any info on when that would happen would ya?

Thanks,

They're so far behind Mike, I submitted a skin a couple of weeks ago and just got conformation that it's under review day before yesterday.

Hairless Joe has been under review prolly a month or better. Hopefully they'll get to them before they update the skin for the Jugs.

That would save a single Colt 45 bullet around the house :D

Greebo the canopy tweeks work great !! Have a fourth fighter group plane I've got to go back to :)

Made the numbers bigger to match the plate and Streams pic. Now...

Are the checkers on the bottom of the horizontal stabilizer also ??

Stream ??
