Good so far. I know that skin's a bear. It's a first-generation skin.

The DX in DX*D and the 160 need to be vertically shrunk. They run into the canopy and the wing root, it doesn't "look" right. Give it a little breathing room above and below the text, and I think it'll look better.

Looks like the P-40B flown by George Welch at Pearl Harbor.

Very nice.

My regards,

Looks promising Roger. I'd suggest adding some more definition to the hinge lines. A shadow/highlight behind each control surface to make them stand out more than the other panel lines. Personally I also like the gun and engine hatch lines a bit heavier than the other panel lines.

yep i knw what yu mean greebo,but its  took me so long to get this far  i just wanted  to show it to the world.

one thing that gets  annoying  is having to change the index number  for the  patch each time i save  so it down show up wish the damn thing would stay the same.

I know what you mean. Ran into the same problem on the "old" 109E4. I just did a lot of work at one time before I exported it, then tested it. Of course, if you're fine tuning this doesn't help, as you need to export, go in, check, fix, repeat. But do as much as you can outside of the game then chcek it, that way you don't have to re-enter that transparency number so often.
