Hi all,

Its being some time since I post a new IL2 skin but I had some time left lastly so here we go:

 

IL2M42 from 606th ShAP.(The description was In sovietwarplanes.com but looks like the site is down or no longer available).

The rudder had the remains of a white oblique line, so this aircraft mostly pertained to 214th ShAD or cannibalized parts of an aircraft from that air division. There is a strange sand color applied to the right wing, maybe due to a repair. Apart from that, it has a lovely dotted camo scheme and I took the liberty to camouflage the 37mm nacelles to make them more aggressive. Hope you like it.

This scheme is based on a profile posted there by Massimo Tessitori. All the credits to him.

Regards.

PS: This is the first aircraft in my series that use a new template for the nose aiming lines. I created the template based on different data recollected on different books and looks like a big improvement of my previous lines. I will be updating all the previous skins with this lines but It'll take some time. Since then, enjoy  ;)

Hi, Peterla. :) 
Very well done template, beautiful and interesting skin. Thank you for your attention to soviet aircrafts, and to il-2 especially. Wait your next work.

If you make it..... I could be a Mongolian pilot...

Very nice skins btw. Thanks.

Does that skin have a story that you know ? ie historical ?

Peterla, beautiful skin as always! Yes, unfortunately the sovietwarplanes site is down now, although the archived forum can still be accessed at http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/board/index.php. Regarding the Mongolian Il-2 - nice job sjelljr! These were arrows (swept-winged two-seaters) that the Soviets gave to the Mongolians after the war against Japan in August of 1945. Evidently, the Soviets thought it would be easier to just leave them in the East than to take them back to Europe, where the Il-2 was being replaced by the Il-10 anyway. The Mongolian Il-2s may have served until as late as 1954, making the Mongolians amongst the last users of the Il-2.

 

Best Regards,

 

Jason

A 4k replacement of an historic "Plain Jane" IL-2 I did earlier.  It was destroyed on the ground at Vyazma-Gradina.   Original post:  https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/13717-il-2-am-38-skins/page-5

Thanks once again to ICDP for the template.

Playing a career BoS on Il-2 (42), made an appropriate 4k skin-pack (9 skins with numbers from "1 white" to "9 white"). Typical coloring and writing of numbers for the period 1942/43 were taken as a basis.

Because skins 4K, then for them it is desirable to use the normal map from the template author ICDP: http://www.mediafire.com/file/b6vmuvscvby6jsd/IL2m42_B.dds

How are some of you getting the rear gunner field mod on some of these m42 single seat il-2's? In game I see no option for that and I own all 3 planes (all 3 theaters for the game)

In the plane's set up screen in the mods tab you can choose the rear gunner option.

1CGS designed it and made the original version in 2K. I redid the entire plane (including artwork) in 4K, which is the version you show here.

Enjoy it!

A bat version? A sneaky Snake for the Cobra? Seen enough shark stuff already. A killer whale for the c47 would be nice too.

I always loved the sinister looking black IL 2 on the front of the "old game's" user manual.  Looked around here and for the life of me I don't see a skin like it.  Anyone know if anyone made one?

Will a non rear gunner IL skin work on a plane equipped with the gunner?  Vice Versa?  Geez hope that doesn't sound dumb! ?

Hey Guys. I am a fairly new Pilot, and even more so new skinner. I have worked up 4 Skins (Bicolor and Winter) for The 1942 Il-2 + the 1943 Il-2. I haven't done the 1941 Il-2 yet. I hope I do the Post correctly and everything in order. I would call these Skins generic, as they are not fictional, nor historically detailed like some are. 

Black nose, star markings, 99 9 number on rudder to make it personalized.I got inspired by a historical Il-2 that had numbers on the front part of the rudder, and the back one too. I only created the Skin for me, but I thought why not share it with others.

 

Big shoutouts to  Jason_Williams and BlackHellHound1 for providing the templates to work on. I appreciate it. 

 

P.S I hope the Mediafire to the Folder works: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/v45tgwza72x2m/Il+-+2+Skins(1942-1943)

I was just going to ask if anybody could do this skin por the Ice Ring campaign. Didn't found it in the HYSD. Thank you very much, Julián!
