just a thought to help you.

Post by: Sancho on January 08, 2003, 05:14:19 PM: Nice work. I'd love to see a green P-38 in AH. :)

It would be nice if the anti glare strip could be made transparent to leave the green nose. Same for the P-47D-30, 109G-6 with flower cowl, and probably a few other planes.

Post by: Kweassa on January 08, 2003, 05:44:55 PM: cobra? how did you manage to put the textures over one of the ailerons? With the P-38L there were quirks in the skin that prevented some of the parts of the plane(including 1 aileron) from being colored... That's what's been stopping me from trying more P-28L skins other than the first olive-drab I tried....

Post by: frank3 on January 09, 2003, 03:27:53 AM: looks very good Cobra!

but it that P38 of Jimbear is pretty to, you might make the green a bit lighter and a grey bottom of the plane, and lose the black colour on the engines and nose, it doesnt mix with the dark-green.

these are only sugestions.

I'm pretty sure in some other post someone had said that the nose and engine color couldn't be changed, but what do I know?

Post by: cobra427 on January 09, 2003, 06:50:08 PM: from what i know the nose cant be changed
Title: Two P38 questions
Post by: ramzey on January 09, 2003, 07:51:26 PM: nose can be changed,/puggy and devil/

only black top of nose with yellow strips cannot be removed. Bicose its a object maked in 3d editor and belong to airplane /same like flower on 109g6/

Title: Two P38 questions
Post by: Lazer1 on January 13, 2003, 09:51:03 AM: Yes, and if it was to be made, I would bet many of you would think it would be the best looking plane in the game.;)
