Unfortunately, colour photos are not around from that time. Colour one is a replica.

You realize the top image is a Sopwith Triplane and not a Camel, right?

I have already skinned Collishaw's B6390 Camel, it is listed as "13 RNAS" in the hangar. This skin dates from 2010 and so needs an update to AH3 standards. The skin is usable but suffers from the over-glossy finish common to old AH2 skins that lack bump maps.
