II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Who's the best skinner you've seen across all of the flight sims you've flown? Captain Farrell gets my vote. I hope he and other skilled skinners come aboard as BOS picks up steam. 1
WWChunk Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 It really depends on the sim. WWDubya, who I fly with in IL-2, with the rest of the WingWalkers, makes some absolutely outstanding IL-2 and RoF skins. I also like VPMedia for IL-2 skins. I fly a ton of FSX as well, and some of the repainters there are incredibly good. From Huub Vink, to Jankees, to Thomas Weiss, etc. I will say that I hope we get a website like IL-2 Skins, for BoS.
II./JG27_Rich Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) For IL-2 I like Cpt Farrel also but he doesn't seem to like doing desert skins and the few he does have are bland. Foobar makes great desert skins. Abraxas makes a Gustav Rodel skin that's my favorite but I can't find it anymore. However I keep forgetting that I'm not really flying 1946 anymore. When we get to the desert I like to see someone make a good Werner Schroer "Adjutant" F4. There are a few around but I don't really like any of them. I like the chevron A combo Edited December 11, 2013 by II./JG27_Rich
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted December 11, 2013 Author Posted December 11, 2013 It is very nice, though, I am partial to victory tails.

I hope he and other skilled skinners come aboard as BOS picks up steam. So many.. Capt, Farrell, VP media, fenris does some great stuff in WoP, Cannon did some great work as well.. so did Shooter.
J4SCrisZeri Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Cpt Farrel, Kristorf, VP media, too many talented people to recall them all. There's also a great french page for CLoD skins, and it's closing on september 17! I already have grabben everythung there, just in case.
Feathered_IV Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I remember gleefully downloading the latest CanonUK skins back in the days of dial up connections. His Ulrich Steinhilper skin from 2003 is still one of my all time favourites.
II./JG27_Rich Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) I like Canon also. One and a while you'll find one skin you love and it's by a guy you never heard of before. I have a light gray 109 G6 that's by "Junior" I've had it for 9 years. Also I still us the little 2001 IL-2 skins that I really liked in 1946 all the time. Edited December 12, 2013 by II./JG27_Rich
II./JG27_Rich Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) It's just a little too grubby for me and the crosses on the wings are too far out great screenshot though. That same skin is in the movie The Desert Dogfighter. Edited December 12, 2013 by II./JG27_Rich
gavcaMadG Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) Along these great guys mentioned, I like _Harpia_Mafra55_ work, he is awsome! Edited December 12, 2013 by gavcaMadG
Pierre64 Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 RaFiGer was one of my favorites. Realistic and accurate Luftwaffe skins!
J4SCrisZeri Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Along these great guys mentioned, I like _Harpia_Mafra55_ work, he is awsome! oh yes! I forgot that name, my bad. Wasn't him a brazilian guy/team??? so many memories, nights spent downloading and testing!
Foobar Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Looking forward to make some desert skins again I always liked Hammerd's skins very much. Long time ago I've heard about him last time. 1
Reflected Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Imperator made some very realistic and accurate German skins in RoF. I also respect Kristorf very much, his work is amazing.

Long time ago I've heard about him last time. Tis one is probably my favorite desert skin. I had to make it blank so I could put my number on it 16 and also be able to hide the overlap of the crosses when flying in Spits VS 109s. I think the original number is Red 4. The is also a White 2 that I use a lot too. It's very light tan in colour Imagine what a BOS Desert F4 will look like Edited December 12, 2013 by II./JG27_Rich
15[Span.]/JG51Costa Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Looking forward to make some desert skins again I always liked Hammerd's skins very much. Long time ago I've heard about him last time. Looking forward to see your work in BoS. And Hammerd is one of my favorites too, since his Fw190 Dora Winter cammo in Janes WWII Fighters.
gavcaMadG Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 oh yes! I forgot that name, my bad. Wasn't him a brazilian guy/team??? so many memories, nights spent downloading and testing! Yes, he´s Brazilian
