Title: Working on a new skin
Post by: Wes14 on June 28, 2007, 12:43:03 AM

This would be the First Rv-8 skin i tried making to a WW2 theme.

im not sure to put a RAF or USAF markings on it,or where to put the markings as of yet. I tried to make it look like it had cannons:D

i might actually try weathering on this bird.

any suggestions or anything on it?


thanks in advance,
Wes14

good job! I think you should make it a brit plane, because on most american planes, like the P51D, they stripped the paint to make the plane lighter

No. No no, no no no, no no, no no, no no no. They didnt 'strip' paint, they just stopped applying it because it was deemed unecessary, and a waste of perfectly good chemicals.

The wings on the P-51s were painted even if the fusalage was not.

Bud Andersons' ground crew stripped the OD using steel wool on Old Crow.

He mentioned this in an interview after remarking after a sortie that he wished the plane was silver.  His ground crew did it overnight.
