Title: Me 262 Skin
Post by: oakranger on May 31, 2009, 02:53:37 AM
Guys, i came across some great 262 image and see if any of you like to do a profile on one.  My personal favorite is III.EJG2 1945.

Me 262's with S-marking on them didn't fit into the performance tolerance and were used as type trainers.

While I agree we need some 262 skins back in the fold again, I think those profiles are suspect as to the colors used and the camo styles/fades.

The next skin release will have another 262 skin in it, Kommando Nowotnys White 8.  I am thinking about doing White 4 (or Black 4?) cant remember.  It is the one that has the white primer nose section.  Haven't spoken for it or planned to do it as I was expecting more 262s to be done by others.  I was hoping to see the release before making solid plans for more 262s honestly.

What about the "Kommando Schenk 1944" I have posted above.  Would you do that one.  Or better yet, i love to see III.EJG2 1945 "Red 13"

I would have to do a lot more research on red13 before I would do it oak.  I don't believe the paint is correct nor the forward font.  I could be wrong of course.  However, none of my books show that particular font used. 

If authentic, it could'a been done by a crew chief showing some flair :)  Most Luftwaffe crew-chiefs were required to wear 15 pieces of flair.  Some chose to wear more... and the unit commanders encouraged that.

Oak, you dweeb   :devil

Some LW erks were known to wear as many as 32 pieces of flair... and had terrific smiles.   ;)

What I have on red 13 & most of the profiles in the above pictures seem to match most profiles & photos I have?

Cool!  Thx for the period pics Lyric.  I will do Red13 for ya then oak.  I will try my best to have her paint done in a few days for you to look at.  Weathering will take a little longer. :)  Cant wait to see the arena complaints about crashing 262's with a number 13 on it..lol.

Thx, That will look great on AH.  Did you do a white/gray skin of 262? That will make a great addition for 262's skin.   i think i found another Kommando Nowotnys, "white 10"

I haven't done a white/gray one.  I have done the one in-game now, the Kommando Nowotny in next release, I will do Red13, and the white primer nose Black4.  That puts 4 of mine in-game.  Almost 1/3 slots.  I don't wanna step over-bounds doing more than 4 and take slots from others that would like to skin some themselves.

All of these skins look nice! I like the "White 11" and Wolfgang Schenk's paint scheme.
