I wasn't going to post this until it was finished but I have become a little busy and it might as well get used as is. The screen shots are back on page 2 or 3:

Made my day, as I've been waiting for this one... many thanks Dave.

I don't have time to do this, but I did the Emblem of First Pursuit squadron. If anyone wants to skin this plane go ahead.

 

I attached the emblem below, if you need it.

 

 

 

 

 

Few weeks ago I went to a cool airshow in Fort Worth Texas. There was a lot of cook stuff, from Mustangs, to F-22s, to Mig-17, the Blue Angels and even a crazy hybrid biplane, powered by a prop and a jet.

 

There was also a cool little P40 that flew that day. I'd love to do this one, but I'm so busy and I know it will sit there, half done for half a year.

 

9./JG27golani79, since you have lots of details done for the flying tigers, do you think this one is worth your time?

Few things I noticed about this plane. The small rivets are almost invisible on the plane, so the layers that represent small rivets would have to be toned down considerably. Quite bright camouflage colors. Interesting variant of the Shark mouth.

[Jaws2002]

I started it but after looking at the camo and other things that I need to do to get it done, I know it will just sit there for ever.

 

This is how far I got, before quitting.

Cool it was a skin request from me. It is post #31.

 

If you dont mind, i have found some pix. Two of them are original.

 

From my knowledge it was on both sides of the ac.

 

Thank you and salute!

[Zargos]

You're right LcSummers, but to a certain point only.

In fact Clinger had two planes yhe n°38 et the n°48.

 

On the n°38 the little cowboy is on the left side of the rudder znd seemed to be uncolored as well as the japanese flag as shown here under (credit Pierre64) :

 

 

As far as I remember the pictures you've posted rerards the n°48

Nice skins!

 

My favorite is #62 like on some P-39.

[Obelix]

Thanks

[Cybermat47]

Just wondering, would anyone be interested in turning this into a skin?

 

 

I know that it's an N, not an E, but I still think it would be a great skin to have

[beepee]

Here are some more ideas for RAAF P-40Es if anyone is keen:

 

 

The following are not E models either, but still worth a look:

 

 

These are from the Osprey Aircam series of books.

I would have done one of the FNQ, WA, NT, New Guinea squadrons but none of them operated the P40-E. With the exception of the North African campaign all Australian-flown P40s were later models. N's IIRC.

The issue with making P40-N skins for the P40-E is that the N was actually a longer airframe. The vertical stabiliser was also slightly different IIRC. This makes aligning the camo patterns and other markings in their correct locations a little difficult.

Some may not notice or care but I painstakingly checked and rechecked period photographs for the Caldwell skin. It is actually missing two details which is why i was not going to share it yet.

I'm waiting for an N so I can do Keith Truscott's aircraft.

And I still haven't fixed the alpha channel on the roundels and node art.

If you make some Aussie P-40's all you need to do is paint the M.C.202 like 'Tony' (Ki-61 Hein)

Abbott?

[VBF-12_Stick-95]

I don't know if this has been addressed, if so, please disregard.  My P-40 psd file is dated 9/29.  Creating a dds straight from this file results in holes in the exhaust pipes when looking from the cockpit.  The default skins has no such holes.  I was able to adjust the Alpha to correct it.

[Karigan]

Hi everyone !

 

Today, I will post for the first time one of my P40's skin.

It's the aircraft of the second Lt. Philip Adair who flew in India in 1944.

It can be interessant to flight Lulubelle against Ki-61 Tony aka Mc.202 (I will maybe post a skin later).

So, this is the final result:

It's worth noting that on the left wing walkway, somebody rather helpfully wrote 'Use the bloody step!'. Pictures of that soon.
