Just had a little cross-country flight with one of your skins. Crikey, does this baby nose-over with a little inattention ?

Don´t want to offend anybody, but the profiles from Sundin are no good source for skinning. The skin is well done, but the colours don´t match the RLM colours Luftwaffe used.

 

These books are a good start for Luftwaffe colours

Yeah, that didn't make any sense . . . .    what I meant was, I was hoping for a Hornisse/Hornet with yellow parts    ?

 

Or even one like this:

Although I don't know if there were 410s with this kind of paintings

The wasp was a ZG1 thang -  They did use 210/410s for sure but in all the photos Ive seen (not many) the wasp was a lot less prominent than the Ostfront version seen on its 110s
