some ideas
« on: January 08, 2010, 08:30:12 PM »
Skinning for me is to time consuming, it may take 3/4 months to complete 1 skin with sports, school, after school activities. So here im gonna pitch some ideas if someone wants to take the time to do it.

La7-http://vvs.hobbyvista.com/Markings/La7-3gun/index.php  Here, these are all ideas, but i really like the 3rd one down.

C47- Bare metal, i was wodering if it would look right with the games graphics.

190F-9 -i saw this and fell in love with it!!    http://fw190.hobbyvista.com/440_382.htm

Just a questions here: What is the thing sticking out of the bottom??  A radio?

F4F- i was looking through some models online and found this skin on the box--http://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/tru/kit_tru_2255.shtml

So, after asking all those questions you would rather others makes skins for you instead of actually trying it for yourself?

La-7: Very similar to one we already have in-game (the white rudder and number on the side being the main differences)



C-47: has to be a historic combat skin. Many C-47s may have been bare metal, but are we talking C-47s from ww2, or are we talking DC-2s, or what? Has to have seen combat or been used during the war that way.

190F-9: The one directly under the wing edge is a retracable step-ladder, the one under the cross is a side-view of a loop antenna.

F4F-3: that's a pre-war paint scheme for a version with only 4 guns and no heavy wing fold gear or (if I recall my wildcat versions) drop tank capabilities. Doesn't fit the AH skin criteria (pre-war) and is a bit of a stretch to fit the plane we have currently modeled in-game.

No worries. If you want to work on that 190F or dig up a BMF C-47, more power to ya!

You have to start somewhere, right?

I will say the C-47 and the F4F are 2 of the "older" skins and not as user-friendly. You may wish to stick to the La, or the 190F, from that list. They are both more modern designs.
