Does anyone know if a post-war US Navy Nieuport 28C skin like the one at the Detail and Scale page is available?

 

You can see what it looks like here: Nieuport 28 - Detail and Scale

 

Also, I have the official skin kit, and can edit PSD files, but I'm not sure what to do with it after I've edited. Is there a good guide on how to create and load skins?

 

Thanks,

-Drew

Well I don't know if there's already one skin like that in FC, but I can tell you how to upload the skin, the best site where you can upload it is in HSD (or also known as Haluter's Skin Downloader) you can download HSD in read more about it here, and the requirements for uploading a skin you must upload the .dds file and then upload a promotional image no longer than 960x540p (I have to say that it's necessary the .dds file to have alpha layer) and no more than 200kb, the rest of steps are quite intuitive.

But if you prefer I can make the skin, so that way you save all the uploading process and all that stuff.

S!

Thank you for the information and the offer to make the skin -- which I appreciate very much!

 

I doodled a bit with the official psd file last night, but getting a silver color is not easy for me.

Yeah that's why I offered to make the skin, I may be able to get the right color

There's an blank official skin called "First Batch" that is silver and has the tri-colors on the tail in the right order.  It has French roundels, which would have to be changed to American stars.

That could be a good place to start! I think I recall it looking more white to me than silver, though.
