Anyone got a list of what was in this skinpack?

It was a mish-mosh.  Several skins were replaced and/or updated.  Our skins download page has the current list as of today.

For some reason each time I take the white one up I land 5-7 kills, I think it's has magical powers.

Also Greebo's B25H "Love Bug" will have me flying those around more often.

Saxman I take it either your Chog skin isn't done/didn't make it into the skin pack?

You might want to look a little bit closer because they ARE there. You may also want to check out my reference photos for this bird which show it EXACTLY how I skinned it: Limited variance in color between panels and very subdued panel line detailing. Oh, and VERY LITTLE WEATHERING. I may need to darken the color a little but I stayed true to my reference.  :mad: :mad: :mad:

BTW Krusty, I went through about 3-4 different color and gradient variations before I went with this BASED ON FEEDBACK ON THIS BOARD, so if you thought something was wrong you had PLENTY of time to comment before.

Sorry sax, I never saw that thread.

I was flying close formation on a wingy and had this skin on his plane. I thought it was a graphics bug, that the skin hadn't loaded, but then I realized "nah, there's insignia, and a number on it". When zoomed in max, wingtip to wingtip, I couldn't see any detail on it other than the oil tape and the stars and bars.

Sorry to hurt your feelings. I do like your other work. Some of it is masterful. This? Not your best.

(*shrug* I've got some I'm not totally proud of either)
