Finnish Fiat G.50

Post by Sapper-FIN » Thu Nov 10, 2005 6:53 pm

"FA-21" Fighter squadron 26, March 1943. Flown by 2lt Sartjärvi.

Finland had a total of 33 G.50´s. With these, 101 soviet aircraft were shot down (Winter War 13; Continuation War 88.)

I used Von_Zero´s template for the base, but had to do most of the work myself, since i wasn´t so satisfied with the original template.. I think it turned out quite nice...

Gee, thanks guys, you´re making me blush with all those compliments :oops: :lol:

Dutch, i wasn´t sure if i understood your wishlist correctly, but did you mean something like this?

Image

That FIS-insignia is obviously in a wrong place, i´ll get that sorted out...

If you want something done differently, that´s no problem at all...

Igor; sure mate, i´ll make it today or tomorrow at least... Do you want it with FAF markings or FI markings? I still dont have your email addy, i think (?)

Thank you for your kind words Dutch! ^:)

I think those FIS roundels look a bit funny with that camouflage...

Sorry Macca, ashtray is a standard equipment.. But if you´re not a smoker, it´s great for keeping the used beer bottle cap´s :lol: :beer:

I´ll look into your skin later this week Macca... Today was my first day at work, after 8 days of sick leave, so it´s going to take a while to recover from that (from work, i mean) :lol:
