Title: RV-8 Airshow Skins
Post by: ShrkBite on April 16, 2008, 08:20:14 PM

Hey Guys!

I was thinking. There is no skins for the RV-8. This bothers me! People could make Airshow skins would be reallly cool! Maybe a contest for best Skin and Airshow Pilot? hmmmm?????

Well actually since there is no historical record for paint schemes of RV8s' in WWII this just might be an area for creative skinning....
Provided HT can stand to see his plane squeakerfied :lol

Beautiful Doll RV8 sits across the runway from HiTech's. Seen that one in person and it's very nice.

Airshow skins for the Rv-8 would be a perfect addition to the game, IMHO.

Am I missing something? I don't see an RV8 anywhere in the game.
