I want to finish an FSO skin and my T-34/85 skin first though so it may be a few weeks until I get round to it.

Much better than getting new maps or any new toys unfortunately it seems.

That would be superb. I don't think it'd be needed until mid-late March. I appreciate it!

Great suggestion Spikes! Is Robt. Johnson's Half Pint in our inventory?

Post by: Greebo on February 23, 2022, 02:08:29 AM: I think "Nellie B" would be the more likely choice for a 48th FG skin as there is no close up of the "Wonderful Winnie" art work and the profile does not seem to match the fuzzy photo in this respect.
