Title: Mosquito No. 248 Sqn. RAF June 1944
Post by: airmess on September 07, 2004, 02:17:15 PM

I'm actually working on this Mosquito skin (still under construction) and have a question about the color of the spinner. Is it possible to change it or ist it part of the model ?

Thanks

I really like the way the gray/green camo looks airmess but the D-Day stripes on the wings are way too large.

All the photos I could find show them outboard of the engines as in the photo I'm including.

I don't fully understand what you mean.

I use Photoshop to make jpg's and load them up to my weberver. Is that what you've meant ?

Yes.

Too bad we're never likely to see one in AH.

This picture is a JPG. I did like this:

Using 1024 x 1024 bmp skin setting in AH and work on the same size in Photoshop.

Using screen resolution of 1600 x 1200.

1) made a screenshot in AH  (Alt-s)
2) made a cut in MS paint
3) pasted that Image into Photoshop with 150dpi
4) saved as JPG in a compression size 10
