Anyone interested in doing me up a 109G?
« on: January 19, 2008, 09:15:59 AM »
I have several photos and profiles to work from, but I don't have the time to devote to the project. If anyone is interested I'll gladly e-mail you the folder with all the resources.

For a bit of background, all the 109s I'm looking at are Romanian ones from Escadrila 53 Vanatoare (the same squadron as the ARR Hurricane Mk.I we have) that fought in the first Ploesti raid in 1943- when the unit was known as the "Deutsche-Koenigliche Rumanische Jagverband"- it was deployed alongside a Gruppe of Jg3 for training at the time.

Many of the photos I have are stills from a Romanian film made at the time (but before the raid I think) highlighting the units training and readiness, and some of them are quite unique looking. Theres quite a variety of standard RLM schemes and more interesting variations of camo.

If I get several interested parties I'll gladly post a few pics on here so you can get a better idea, but I don't want to go to all the trouble if only one or two skinners might be willing to help.

Count me in!  I got Photoshop CS3 today and am ready to dive into skinning, but I was having a helluva time choosing the plane/skin.  Pick one you really want done & get me the info.  I'll keep you updated as it progresses.

Sent you some more pics I was given by one of my researcher friends. From the same photo series as I sent you, but much better detailed closeups.
