Schusta/Schlasta 27b Historical Skinpack (b = Bavarian)

 

  • Halberstadt CL.II (14 skins)
    8 historical, 4 historical-based fictional*, 2 historical-based default (Schusta & Schlasta 27b default)
     
  • Halberstadt CL.IIau 200hp (6 skins)
    4 historical, 1 historical-based fictional*, 1 historical-based default (Schlasta 27b default)

 

These skins would not have been made possible without the help and support of @TG-55Panthercules, the original creator of the Schusta/Schlasta 27b RoF skins (and virtually all Halberstadt CL.II skins), who graciously allowed me to use his RoF templates for the camo patterns and some additional markings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Panther! With added thanks to Jasta 5 squadron mates for their feedback and help in testing.

 

(*) Historical-based fictional skins are for the missing 3. and 6., of which no photographs have survived.
Full details below.

Hands off Thea, though.

Thank you!

 

The musical arrangement should sound familiar if you've played BioShock Infinite. ?

 

Here's the original from PostmodernJukebox (worth checking out all their music): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CPbg9ljE4M

 

 

 

P.S. For the record, and I should have mentioned that before, it's because of @US93_Larner's superb 3PG skins (and more recently @J5_Rumey's J5 skins) that I finally sprang into action. It took me a bit of time to gather all available material, again thanks to Panther, and I also ventured to do a bit of hand painting/tracing (a first for me, please be gentle) to get everything up to 4K standards.

We meet the girls today over the mud, but they were not in mood to dance and at our first attempt started to run away and spit insults, but finally they took the Waltz as it was, Thea was so hot that our lover burst in flames at first contact but finaly she lost her temper and  crash, Dora was splendid in dance but she took one bad step and ram with her partner in dance, similar fate met Brunhilde which after short dance lost control in pirouette and hit the floor, Melania was so much moved by fate of her friends that she run away full of tears but exhausted fell quietly to her knees in green fields. Have to admit girls fought with dignity but...we got them all   ??

Boys, boys, boys! Why so serious?

 

You talk of dignity, but then you attack four defenseless ladies with your entire Sopwith Zoo of 5. And that is after our girls destroyed every single one of your ground targets on the map. Twice. You realise it's not all Vickers-measuring contests and that there is a war going on, right?

 

Spoiler alert!

We will certainly need to have another talk with our mission providers (all of them men) to account for the fact that the girls are some 25km/h slower than even your slowest steeds, and that some of the recon/bombing targets are a bit too high and too far to reach for the short stature of the girls. At least when we escorted you wallflowers to the actual combat zone to dance, and you so violently forced yourselves onto us without so much as buying us a drink first, you were all indeed shot down by our boys on the ground. Men do have their (limited) uses.

 

During our second encounter, after setting your last balloon and barge on fire, I saw two of you Camel boys positively panick-pirouetting when in my gunsights. I have to admit: we've always known that men are the best ballet dancers.

 

We hope to see you again tonight!

Camels are all well and good, but they're awfully clumsy....I think the Girls' deserve more elegant dance partners next time... 

....And we all know which ships dance the most gracefully on the front...

To be honest , Ladies when our path crossed, you must have smeared mascaras from headwind ?   from runing so fast to you men working in fields :hunter: becouse you fail to  notice that our crew of two Camels and two Dolphins were full loaded with explosive gifts addressd heartily in your side.  

 

See you on soon on  the dance floor .  

 

btw "positively panick-pirouetting" do not know that move- must be some drunk camel crossed his legs ?

Guys, with all those handsome ladies here in the room, we shouldn't forget our gentlmanly behaviour. So here is something for those ladies, having the upcoming valentines day in mind:
