You have some sigificant knowledge. Too bad I can't entice you to the skiing game. The effort you put into the JU88 skin looks good.

Well I can try, Robert. What's needed? Drop me a PM if you don't mind. I'm the meantime, I'll have a look at what I can find here on skinning, templates etc.

Nice picks Gents! 33lima, welcome to the neighborhood. I see you took a stroll over to CheifWH's hangar and picked up some mods. I have been severely distracted this week with GBS Bodenplatte patch and then WOFF PE. I haven't gotten out of the P38 since I downloaded the patch. Then WOFF PE had me hooked in the cockpit watching the new animations and belt feeds not to mention the step up in graphics. I wish I was retired and could spend a few hours in each of my Sims per day. I am going to have to get back here into WOTR or somebody is going to get upset with me. Going to try to focus on WOTR on Monday. OBD are working on a lot of good stuff over here right in stride with the WOFF PE work they have been doing. yep

Had to post this one as I think it's one of the best Hurricane skins I've seen so far (151 Squadron). Although it does not yet have the missing 'bite' of Dark Earth added to the port wing, and some-one forgot to retract the footstep, it is nicely weathered, has the right shade of yellow (Chrome Yellow, IIRC) on the fuselage roundels and the more common shade of grey for the squadron codes, plus a less bland undersurface than the stock scheme. And with the glossiness set low in game, I much prefer the general finish and OBD's representation of Dark Green and Dark Earth to CloD's. Nicely done!

There are two less obvious details that I particularly like on display in this picture, one of which which I noticed at the time, the other I didn't.

[Linked Image]

The first one is the way it captures the realistic silver glint on the barrage balloons.

The second one is the one I didn't notice at first, which is the dockside crane in the act of loading or unloading the ship visible under my Spitfire's rear fuselage, in the Royal Victoria Dock.

Dull grey-brown textures for dock areas and long, simple low poly quayside warehouses, in place of what's there now, would be even better.

I set it so the footstep deploys when you open the canopy. so it comes out at least when on the ground with canopy open.

Makes sense, fair enough. I understand the footstep was connected mechanically to the flap over the handgrip behind the cockpit so when the pilot put his hand in that and pressed in the flap, the step would extend. But pics of unoccupied static Hurris show that there was a way of locking the step down. There is also that pic of restored R4118 airborne, with everything hanging - including the step.

You can't have too many pictures (virtual or not) of the most iconic and beautiful warplane ever to grace the skies, so here's another one, of Gordon Olive's kite from 65 Squadron. Several of his vivid post war paintings (reproduced in 'Spitfire Ace') of his air battles from May to September 1940 show his aeroplanes, but he portrays all the British fighters with the Sky spinners and rear fuselage bands that were only introduced about November 1940. But this is how the Spits he flew would really have looked, during the Battle.

Top hole! As you can see, bally Jerry pranged his kite right in the how's-your-father; hairy blighter dicky-birded, feathered back on his sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harpers and caught his can in the Bertie. smile

But by then it was too late. The first cabbage crates hit London on July the 7th. That was just the beginning.
