Sopwith Triplane prototype

[JG1_Vonrd]

I've made an alternate to the default Sopwith Triplane prototype skin which doesn't correctly represent the actual plane IMO.

 

Unique features...

• Engine turned aluminum application to cowling 
• Upper wing cutout 
• Glossy fabric and lightened color of fabric (it would have been basically white or very slightly beige since it was Irish linen with clear nitrate dope).

 

I'm pleased with the results and hopefully haven't offended whoever made the default skin.

Should anyone be missing a destination folder for the Triplane skins, it's...

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\graphics\skins\SopTriplane

Either manually install it in the appropriate folder:

IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\graphics\skins\SopTriplane

(Create a SopTriplane folder if you haven't one by default).

Or choose for Haluter's Skin Downloader where you can either select the skins you want like the one mentioned here or just download and install them all:

 

 

Have a nice day.
