"FOTO JO" Armed recon P-38.
« on: April 13, 2017, 05:49:08 PM »
Well here is one for you P-38 guys.
Not that fancy in terms of colour or much else but it meets the criteria if you want to do something different.

Very nice.   Thank you for that.

Plus the colour of the text on the cover of the book is white?
Also no red around the roundels?

Granted this book is from 1960's.

Yes.  :aok
I think all the text is white and roundels are blue not red.
Spinners don't look blue to me like the profile on the book.
Weird looking wheel covers as well.

Yeah, those spinners are something totally different for sure.

The spinners might be yellow. The color seems to match the text portion of "FOTO JO" and the plane number.



Also the bolts look closer to white than yellow.

The most famous French F5 is surely the one from the French writer "Antoine de St. Exupery" which sometimes is  portrayed painted all blue if you have pictures.

Otherwise here are some pictures of that French camoed #80 included in that board you posted:

Only problem with the French scheme is that she's unarmed.  As far as I am aware, HTC won't allow for unarmed PR planes being skinned onto our armed variants.  The one lyric posted however, IS armed.  So I don't think there will be an issued with getting her skinned. :headscratch:  Whoever is going to skin this should check with HTC to make sure. :aok

Yes, only armed recon planes are allowed.

I have an armed recon P-40C in RAF colors in game.
