Title: Air Group 83 Skins
Post by: JSparrow on December 16, 2005, 06:30:22 PM

Is there any way we can get a VT-83 skin for the TBM in the game?  It is the same as the VBF-83 F4U, F6F and Helldiver.

Here is a pic of the IL2 pack.   I know the F4U skin is already in Aces High.  Would be nice to have all three.

We ought to be able to, if it's historic. If I ever used the SBD I might use that skin, too!

Thanks Krusty.

It is very historic.

Glen Wallace is alive and well, playing darts on the weekends and  emails me frequently.   He also sent me his cruise book a while back.  I read it and sent it back to him.  Saw one a while back for sale for $300.  Ouch!


You can read his diary here: Glenn Wallace (http://www.kilroywashere.org/003-Pages/GlenWallace/GlenWallace.html)

Ed Pappert also wrote a book containing the diary.  "Landing Was the Easy Part".

I dont have the updated shop stuff any more and am unable to paint skins.


Here is my squadron webpage, although it is not active.

Bandwitch is limited so good luck :-)

PS: Those are the skins I made for IL-2 over a year ago.
