Cactus did a fantastic job on detailing and weathering this baby.   Looking forward to seeing it in game!   I think its the best bare metal '38 I've ever seen.

I am only going by other skins in game, but are the anti-glare strips a bit too dark?


Great looking skin cactus, you're real talented, hard to believe this is only your second or third skin no?

Anti glare looks good from where I'm sitting.

If you say it is I believe you. My only evidence was going by other skins in game, I have no pics of Uncle Cy's Angel.

love the checkered tips on the tailfins and rudders

The striped tail on Corky IV looks even better, I wish I'd not screwed up the one I was doing a year or two ago. Submitted a version that was messed up (forgot the national insignias on the wings, and nobody caught it on the test pics until after I'd submitted it), and when I went in to fix it to re-submit, the file was corrupted and I would have had to start it all over. Didn't have the motivation or patience to do it all again, so I just gave up on it.

That one looks gorgeous, can't wait to see it in the game.

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

Never noticed that Treize, will take a look.

Yes it's a gorgeous plane, we have a few nice J skins on the way, will be a tough decision on which one to use.
