Razer, incredible work!

Is there any way you can skin Geronimo, an 80th Headhunter skin? If I ever make a mistake and have kids, you can have the first born if you do it.

if you have pics its simple to do.

Here is an early pic of my first scheme, Still need to do some more weathering in the way of paint flakes but other then that the template is pretty much ready for schemes.

Screwy Looie? Louis Schriebers 80th Headhunter bird

Not that I'm at all partial to Headhunters 38s.

Think you made the same mistake Oboe made when he started that one. Looks like you spelled Looie with a u instead of 2 oo's. Photos show it as Looie.

Looks great though. Do you have something that says that the lettering was green?

Can't tell from the photos but it almost looks red outlined in white.

Dan, I can't seem to find any colorized photos of OD 80th FS P38Ls to help out Razer. Do you have any? Maybe this way, he can get two skins out of one project... the only one I've ever seen with OD on top was 'Geronimo' but I can't seem to find any photos of that bird, nor can I find who originally flew it.

Razer, are you planning on doing any P38G/H skins?

Holy ****. I didn't think AH planes could look so detailed!

Once again, outstanding work.

good catch, yea I didn't have the light on last night while doing the scheme and didn't see the two O's. Simple fix!

I plan to do many schemes for squadrons so I'll do more form this one. It just happen to be the first one I saw.

CPorky, Yes, I plan to do all the P-38 line. I'm currently working on my metal effects to get the L and later J line looking good.

Look for more pics of schemes tonight! (plus fixes for the above one) I think I'll start a new tread for the real schemes.

I have a few pics of Geronimo II but not the first one.

I claim the p38g so dont spam that one up with this.
If all slots on the p38G are filled up by the time
I submit mine I will not be pleased.

my version of the P-38G has completely reworked
panel lines and rivets redrawn from photos of glacier girl.

everything submitted so far is pretty damn innacurate
as far as panel and rivet detail goes.

I will show pics of what I mean soon.
(kirby's 475FG, 431 FG still in progress)

it will be worth the wait.
I think my last hyperdetailed skin was...

Fester, any chance we get a peek?

SkyChimp · « **Reply #25 on:** May 15, 2005, 02:53:42 PM »

CC I wanna see

Razer · « **Reply #26 on:** May 15, 2005, 08:02:29 PM »

I redid all the panel lines and rivets too. I never go on what other people do since I don't like to use other peoples work unless I have no choice.

I plan on doing a large number of F, G, H, J, and L schemes since the template works for all planes. If a scheme is doubled so what. I'm sure people down download the one they like best.

You should be painting because you like too not because your trying to please everyone. You do that and it wont be fun anymore.

I'm going to work on a few schemes tonight and post more pics. I still have a ways to go before i'm somewhat happy with the work. (never really happy with anything I do.

)
