Skin Request - P-51D 'Death Rattler' of the 325th fighter group

[Vamandrac]

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to create 'Death Rattler' which is a fictitious member of the 325th fighter group.  I originally had this paint scheme was originally done for me as personal request by Baron von Blutwurst many years ago for IL2 1946 and would love to see it in IL2 BoX.  I requested this skin as a tribute to the pilot of this aircraft. Harry Tope flew this P-51D extensively in the airshow circuit during the 1980s. Sadly, Mr. Tope died when he crashed in this plane during an airshow in Ottawa, Ontario on July 1, 1990.

I could sort out the nose art and legend in the form of a png if someone wants to do the skin itself. I dont have GB installed hence the half offer.

Okay... so I "only" have the yellow stripes on the wingtips left to do now. I don't think I'll ever do anything checkered again

Would you give me your email? The reason I ask is so you'll be the first to see "Death Rattler" and please let me know if there's anything I need to change/remove/add or whatever you're not happy with. I'll send you the skin in a zip/rar file when it's ready, give me a day or so.

Take care buddy
