D0-335 Done...maybe...hopefully

I flipped the wing emblems to their proper layout and put some wear on the wing and fuselage emblems so they're not poppin' off the plane as much, a bit more wear to match the plane (good call Falcon).

Excellent mottling!

I thought about doin' the same thing with the 88 but I chickened out.

Besides, the 88 doesn't deserve any special treatment.

The rounds look mucho bettero

The Ju-88 is done.

Image

I may come back and do some more paint chipping but for now it's finished. I can only give it a "B-" grade at best, but I s'pose if it's divin' at you at three hundred plus knots with four machine guns blazin' and 1000 kg of bombs droppin' on you you prolly won't mind the paint.

Next job: retire to rest home for a bit.

PS: I might brighten up the pilot number a bit before I release it. Maybe a black fuselage band with a larger white number over it?

Snaphoo, Sneaky, Noter, Gen, Spitsfire and any other volunteers,

I set an arbitrary date of ~February~ for the Axis ac skins, the new Allied ac skins and the new pilot update for the first batch of Allied ac to be ready. I've asked the squad to add their names to the pilot list if they want to be added by Feb 1. Does this sound workable to you?

Here is a small PSP file I made up with all the names and fonts I used to make the names for the first Allied stuff. It may be usefull and save some time.

Here is the psd version.

Let us know if you need more time.

Thanks,


Falcon

Let me hear from you,

or

"*cough* that thing is the most disgusting piece of crap, I almost puked into my wienerschnitzel!"

I need to move on to the next ac and you're causing me to doubt.

The white band WASN'T a joke!
