acred99 Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Hi Guys Being trying to download from 'mediafire' and just get a lot of span pages and miss direction pop-ups does any one have copies that they can put in say 'dropbox' or something that's not so un-user friendly! They look great skins but impossible to download. Thanks Matthew www.asisbiz.com
Feathered_IV Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 With mediafire, always right-click the big download button and select "save target as..." to avoid getting buggered about by ads.
acred99 Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Thanks I managed to download this time round.
Zargos Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Hello friends, I've also been working on P40E skins. As usual I started nearly from scratch the only things I've taken from the offcial template is the internals parts and the structure elements (lines, rivets, fabric shades). All the rest is from my own hands. My first attempt is a P40E of the 23rd FG flown by Colonel SCOTT (the 23rd FG was created in 1942 from the American Volunteer Group (The Flying Tigers). The skin is not yet completely finished : national markings must be american and not chinese as displayed and the OD color must be tuned to match with the OD 41 used in 1942 (the current color is ANA 613 used from 1943). Some pictures (WIP) : See you soon for the skin release ! Cheers. 5
Weegie Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 It looks very nice to me as it is Zargos. I'm not one to worry about historical accuracy.
samson Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Exellent!!! reworking of the template. 'cos it's too rough IMO (the initial template). @Zagros Some VVS skins in such manner for P-40 would be appreciated
Luger1969 Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Hi guys. I must say that the c202 and p40 skins have in a very short time become very big. The P40 rightly is very popular with the sharkmouth....very soon we will have another great and famous canvas for this in 110. Has anybody perhaps done the Clive Caldwell p40 112 squadron or if not can it please be considered. "Caldwell claimed 22 victories while in North Africa flying P-40s, including ten Bf 109s and two Macchi C.202s. He had flown some 550 hours in over 300 operational sorties." Some impressive combats... many thanks again for the skins.
4SCT_Vespa Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Great work Zargos. Can't wait to see the final result
Bullets Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Really nice Zargos but you didn't use the better tire texture which was posted in this thread

Zargos Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Hello, Thanks to all of you for your comments. Now the skin is ready for use since I've : - change the tire texture with Pierre64's - add propeller stencils (also from Pierre64) - correct the color of the fuselage behind the rear windows (it was the same color as the paint scheme but not zinchromate as in the offcial template) - tune some elements of the alpha layer Notice : the next screenshots don't show all the changes I've made. Download link : http://www.unbound-frogs.org/zsf/2015/10/21/curtiss-p40-23rd-fighting-group-colonel-scott/ Enjoy ! Edited October 21, 2015 by UF_Zargos 7
Boomerang Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Made this, might come in handy Feel free to amend where necessary, (as it may alter from monitor to monitor), and pass it on. The file is called: 1939-1945_US_AirCraft_Colours, its a .png within a .7zip Link: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/c7aycv4ku5vmp/Plane_Skins 2
Trooper117 Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Great skins, but mainly Russian and US... c'mon chaps, how about some RAF and commonwealth skins, there are only a couple so far... they would be much appreciated
Mysticpuma Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Hey everyone, The P-40 is one of my all time favorite aircraft. I have built several Balsa RC P-40s and wanted to share with you all my favorite paint scheme all skinned up. Hopefully those checkers do their job and scare off a few 109's for you Here is Lighthouse Louie: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xg8co0z0sdbcb07/P40E1_LighthouseLouie.dds?dl=0 -Red Always great to see Checkertail skins Personally I like Sawtooth Apache and Lott-O (so if you ever feel like having a dabble with those, that would be great )
Zargos Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 @Zagros Some VVS skins in such manner for P-40 would be appreciated Hello, I hear you ... Still WIP but almost finished.

Zargos Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks for your comments ! Now I must make choice : continue with the P40 skins or shift to BF109E7 ? Before I make my mind, here is a focus on the paint chipping on the wings of my australian P40 :
FuriousMeow Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Oooops ! Wrong copy-paste ... I think this link is the good one : http://www.unbound-frogs.org/zsf/2015/10/25/curtiss-p40-2eme-giap-colonel-boris-safonov/ The Download/Telecharger links just keep redirecting back to the Index for that skin. The Download/Telecharger links work fine for your other skins.
Zargos Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 The Download/Telecharger links just keep redirecting back to the Index for that skin.

SharpeXB Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Thanks for letting me know that the tires still were bugged - checked again and found out that I´ve apparently used a wrong DXT setting. Should be fixed now and it´s working for me (checked it in the viewer and in the game). Please let me know if there still are issues left. Flying Tigers: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mj8qa0y1t61dwoe/P40_2ndSquadron_AVG_China_1941.dds?dl=0 White 56 Pack: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h2ozlzx7jw7per0/P40E_White56.rar?dl=0 I´ve also updated them with the diamond tires - thanks Pierre64 for the .psd file! nice skins but they are an .rar format and I don't know what that is?
Yankee_One Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) @ SharpeXB Hi use or search for 7.zip (google it). Its free and can open, unzip and extract those files. Hope this helps Edited October 31, 2015 by LcSummers
