If Sneaky's amenable, I'll do (down the list):

mine
Heloego
Moe
Murph
and the uncoded one?

that leaves:

Sneaky R.
Snaphoo
Snoop Baron
Tactical
and the blank.

Remember Noter, Soda's gets the red/black stoof up the arse.


Let us know Snee,

Falcon, have I told you lately that I love you and that I'd love to see my 40 with a green/gold checkered tail and the stars'n'bars with the red outline? The Checkertail Clan need to make an appearance in this campaign.

Pwitty pweeze wid shuga on top.

P.S.. No probs if it's a PITA...or CIABATTA, or FOCACCIA even. Exit, stage left.

Duxford rendition of GA S FR870 done up in the later Italy colours used by 112 Sqn, note the shark mouth does not seem to conform to the usual pattern used by RAF 112 Sqn

Very WIP ...

I might not have much time to do much wear, but I'll dirty it up a wee bit.

PS: Diagonal checks are MUCH harder to do than straight checks.

gah!

They look good Falcon, just finishing up the last of mine. Have them ready by tomorrow.

Now how do we get these to Tactical? FTP?

So you're saying it's harder to be a bishop than a rook? :badgrin:

I love the skin Falcon. Noter could tell you, I have a big soft spot for the P-40. Looking forward to getting my hands on the finished product.

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

No prob Moe, but understand that this is an uber rush job. I have a great P-40b/c template, but I'm whipping up a VERY old P-40E/M template from when dino-moose and protoferrets roamed the Earth. Detail, wear and precision won't be the highest priority. Getting it ready for tonight will.

This will be neat though, the Warhawks will have three different designs.

And Snaphoo! I saw you 'round the forums last night. Don't be worried. We understand. We're not mad at you! You gonna be flyin' Friday night?

Can we temporarily create a Troina folder here at the FI site? From there I could grab them, work my magic, then have them hosted from Snoop's and Moe's servers (and delete the Troina folder afterwards of course).

Troina?

...

I knew a girl named Troina once.

You could fold her all kinds a'ways.

;)


Falcon


PS: I hazzard to presume that we can put them in Gurb's FTP site at:

http://www.nerb.ca/fi_skins/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

for a day or two until all are up and Tac takes them.

Remember to use 7Zip if you have it. Saves lots of space.


PPS: There's Snaphoo! The old "Tell him we're not mad" ploy worked! Get'em boys! AAAAH!

;)
