Title: FG-1D VMF-122 Lt. Leroy E. Anheuser
Post by: whiteman on May 26, 2021, 09:49:02 PM: This FG-1D is from the Werewolves time on Peleliu in 1945. There they aided Marine troops with close air support, often with rocket and napalm only 1000ft from the end of the runway. Ace Don Sapp was the CO at that time.

Post by: Devil 505 on May 26, 2021, 10:17:48 PM: Very nice.

Only thing I'd adjust is making the Sea Blue a little lighter and the Insignia Blue a bit darker so that the contrast is visible between the two. I honestly don't see any Insignia Blue at all in your screenshots.

Post by: Greebo on May 27, 2021, 02:07:07 AM: I agree with Vraciu's comment on the insignia blue and I'd say the photo shows a bit less dirt than is shown on the skin. Other than those nit picks though its a great skin Whiteman.
