MeoW.Scharfi Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Nice skin! Is it possible to make a blue nose skin without having anything written on it, like killmarks and letters? 1

I was in the process of preparing the official template and made this skin to ensure it worked OK. Jason is not going to be able to upload it "officially" for a few days but I will provide a temporary link in the official template thread. 20 minutes ago, MeoW.Scharfi said: Nice skin! Is it possible to make a blue nose skin without having anything written on it, like killmarks and letters? I have included the Blue nose layer in my template. So it should be possible to create a generic blue nose skin. Edited October 5, 2019 by ICDP 4 3

Does that apply just to the P51 or are all the official templates coming out soon? i am not nagging, just asking. The one being nagged is me ? 56 sqn are jealous that Cina has his US-C and keep asking me when I will give them their letters too. Children ? Edited October 5, 2019 by 56RAF_Roblex

336th_Ripper* Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 @ICDP I am extremely grateful as I am sure the rest of the community for your glorious templates which allows folks like me with limited experience in creating skins for all and for my Squadron. Are you part of the Dev team in anyway or are you simply a super generous individual??? I always wondered! 1
ICDP Posted October 5, 2019 Author Posted October 5, 2019 I started out just updating stock 2K templates to 4K and at one point Jason asked if I could work on updating the stock skins in sim. So I am working with the devs to update the stock skins with BlackHellHound. 5 2 3

Can I request these? If I knew how to make skins, I'd do it. You did a great job. Since I'm Canadian and as a kid grew up on an RCAF Mustang base (they were all camo) I'm including one. (Y2) . Here's a bunch of famous ones. Thank you for at least reading my post. Cheers Brian Edited October 6, 2019 by onlyforbrian forgot an item 2

Download it again to make sure you have the latest more accurate version. ICDP, when you get the template for the P38, here's some info for the most famous P38 of all. Richard Bong's "Marge". He was the highest scoring ace of the USAF. Looks like he had the drab brown just on the nose and inner side of the nacelles, and red on the wingtips and tail. I included Marge's photo.

-250H-Ursus_ Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) Is possible to ad the invasion bands on the top and below of the wings ? Edited October 6, 2019 by -332FG-Ursus_

While I've never made skins yet and all my attempts at it fail (as I'm a computer illiterate when it comes to GIMP and the .dds plug-ins) I would say it should be. If a couple have been released with camo paint on the upper surfaces of the wings, It should be more than doable to add wrap-around invasion stripes. Basically any sort of custom paint is more than feasible. Your mind is the limit.

Suggestions only. Good idea to made group of skins from the same squadron? Now are official only one skin represented squadron. For better recognize on air. Someone interested for 352nd FG squadrons or 78th Fg squadrons? I cant instal plugin to Photoshop for Mac. I havent experience.
Danziger Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) The team and @ICDP have done an outstanding job with this one. This is a plane that looks great from any angle. I am almost done with all the twerking for this fictional set of personal skins. I think I have the alpha where I want it. I added some extra green camo blotches to one of them like I have seen painted on some B17s. Here is some more stang porn. Spoiler Edited October 7, 2019 by Danziger 8

Danziger Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 Would white or yellow be used for stencils on top of a black nose?
[PFR]Sarpalaxan Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 Whelp, thought I throw my hat in the Ring. Never really done historicaly acurate skins before but hey, If there are some from my own Country why not. https://www.mediafire.com/view/xzzlx59f8456mte/P51D15NA_J-2076.dds/file 1 2
