My character somehow got all twisted up. I was playing the mission where you have to infiltrate the Golden Glow Estate and do multiple things. When I was out burning beehives and fighting I just eventually ran away to view my success from a distance. I first noticed it when I squated down on a tree trunk. Coot..the squatter../simHQ/2011

Those yellow wingtips would fit perfectly within a reflector sight!

Thanks for all the comments! Today I've uploaded two Bf109E-3's and three E-4's...

The Grey one I've done in RLM 74/75. Adolf Galland once claimed that the colors they mixed in 1940 to try and come up with suitable greys were later used as RLM74 and RLM75. I don't know about that but judging from a colorphoto of Gallands Emils it seems plausible. Besides, if the colors were done using RLM65 with various greens it makes sense that the lighter grey is more blueish while the darker is more greenish as the 65 would have had less effect on the dark color.

Great work as always! thumbsup
Looking at them is so tempting to buy the game but,

Hi Anders,
you know, I'm one of the most dedicated fans of your work and a collector of your skins for years. WinkNGrin

I just recently bought COD and installed all of your skins immediately!
Some very interesting blanks are included and I'm in the process of replacing the default skins with yours... wink

I bumped on some photo's that show a mistake on your Munchenberg skin from your first bunch of skins for the E-3.

It seems that this plane had the "Schlageter" emblem on.
Also it had a later "squared" canopy and windshield.
(I know that when it was made the E-4 was not available yet;
should it be used on the E-4 now?)... rolleyes

Beautiful work mate, the dapple on the first few is exquisite, and Yellow 3+1 is just perfect

Look how those mechanics splashed fuel all over the fuselage! - Wouldn't have expected that of the Luftwaffe... smile I'm sure they weren't so prolific with 87 octane later in the war...

Finally had some time to finish something... Two new Bf109E-1's uploaded today, both seems to have originally worn the early war camoscheme which then has been modified at unit level. There's more coming but when is hard to tell.

BTW I also fixed my donate button that has been out of action for quite some time. Just saying... smile
