Title: KG 30 Ju 88
Post by: Greebo on July 10, 2020, 04:44:22 AM

Devil requested a KG 30 Ju 88 skin for a future FSO event.

This Ju 88 was part of the command flight of the second wing of Kampfgeschwader 30 while based in France in 1940. Formed in late 1939 as a specialist anti-shipping unit, KG 30 was stationed in the west throughout the war and was active during the battles for Norway, France and Britain during 1940. Later it operated against Allied convoys to Russia from bases in Norway. In late 1944 it was stood down so it could be converted into an Me 262-equipped fighter unit but supply problems meant this never happened.

Very nice. Thanks for doing this one so quickly.

I do have to ask, do you think the red marking were really that bright and bold?

I found a really good reference picture of 4D+DC and the red on the spinner and emblem seem pretty dull to me.

I think it may look even better with a red similar to the RLM 23 red I used on my shark mouth 110C

I used RGB 133/54/48

No problem Devil, I'll tone the red down before submitting it.
