crap F4U and the 109 didn't work.....copy and paste skin/squad name into google and it should come up
-
Skins from another game are not a good source of reference material.
The P-51Ds are all full, Skuzzy will not accept anymore skins for them.
The 110G is a 110C per your own comments.
The 190D9 is already in game. (http://www.netaces.org/skins/190d9/skin5.jpg)

What are good sources?
I was looking for books in a hobby shop that sold model kits. I have several books that only show profiles. I was looking for something that showed all aspects in color: top, bottom, let, right. Are front or back significant?
Anyway, I came up empty handed. Where do you all find complete set of views?

In most cases you can't as very few aircraft of the time had photos taken of every angle. You find profiles photos documented aspects of what ever airforce methods of painting that were used. Even then I would say some are a best guess & are left to an artist's interpretation of what that vehicle should look like.

Profiles or (preferably) photographs.

My suggestion is that you first do some serious research on a particular plane type. Then see if you can find a unique paint scheme that hasn't been done. Post your suggestion with the profiles and images you've found and maybe someone will bite.
You;ll find a lot of us who have our own resources that we are more then willing to share with the skinners, and I'd like to think we are fairly decent at quality control if given the opportunity before a skin is submitted to HTC,
Take advantage of the people here willing to help and be open to their suggestions and criticisms. We all benefit from the quality work the good skin makers do and anything we can do to support that without just throwing things at them hoping they stick, can only be a good thing.

ok thanks....I'll take some time later and try and find some REAL proof of skins.
