VVS winter Li-2 skin
« on: December 07, 2011, 07:03:53 AM »
I found a photo of this winter camo'd Li-2 (Soviet license-built C-47) and decided to skin it. This is more for special events than the MA, but I'll submit it for there as well. This should be my last winter skin for now as I can't think of any others I have templates for that haven't already been done by me or someone else.

I don't have info on the unit this aircraft was attached to, but it was based in the Metropol region in 1942-43.

Could you do Hartman's G6 when he was commander of I/JG53 Feb 44? before you hang up winter.

From memory,

It's a neat scheme, with the winterizing <white> over gray green camo and a black tulip showing through.

Thank you,

Sorry, I have never done a 109 skin and am not likely to ever have time to do so now. It takes only a few days to create a skin on an existing template, but a month or so to make one from scratch. Your best bet is to start a thread requesting the skin in this forum, with either a profile or preferably some photos of the scheme.

The terrain is a custom one that Ranger kindly made for me to display these winter skins. It is not a playable terrain as it has only one airfield on a small island.
