Jasta 17 albatros skinpack

[J5_Rumey]

Just finished work on this pack and have uploaded to HSD, some will probably like it, others not. Some skins has been done I am sure. But this is my take on these paint schemes. I went for a bit rougher brushed look on paint schemes. Also look closer at weight tables for Dv, Dva and Dva OAW  probably got this wrong but at least I tried.  

 

 I really recommend this updated texture file https://www.mediafire.com/file/tgvcurfgechrila/AlbatrosD5_B.dds/file otherwise the OAW wheels in Fleischer's bird will look wonky. 

 

You can hopefully download them from HSD soon.  https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/70078-haluter’s-skin-downloader-for-the-il-2-sturmovik-great-battles-series/

 

UPDATE 2021-04-23: J5_Adam sent me some nice lozenge I just had to use, also an updated wood layer. Also added the 2 skins from this thread. Some small adjustments and tweaks to all skins. Will reupload to HSD as soon as the old ones are taken down. Screens in thread updated

Great contribution to the community Rumey.  I can't believe I've never seen these birds before!  Thanks for bringing them to light!

Hi J5_Rumey,

I found this beauty!
Can you still do the skin, please?

Sorry, a bit bigger here?

[[ER]Nordseefischer]

Große Skins.

Meiner Meinung nach muss der Albatros jemals die bunteste Ebene in ww1 sein ?????????

[PatCartier]

Hi J5_Rumey!

Are you making the two new aircraft available for download? Please say "yes"?

[J5_Rumey]

S!

 

Yes not done yet though, needs some fixes and haven't had any time this week.

... thank you very much for the positive answer and I will continue to wait patiently.

I really like the idea of one-unit planes (their AD5 of Jasta 5 until now were the highlands and now Jasta 17 !!!).

 

If you need suggestions I can recommend:

"Seefrosta" (25 skins: 4x AD3 / 11x AD5 / 2x PD3 / 4x HCL2 / 2x FD7 & 2x RC4)

and

"Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 30" (56 skins: 18x AD3 / 20x AD5 / 12x PD3 / 4x FD7 / 1x PD12 & 1x DFW C5)

That's a nice job. Lining up patterns on the tail of the Alb template can be a real nasty piece of work...
