No extra trouble for me, but the knife is kinna cool.

Be advised though, the Moe-w/knife in Noter's .psp file is kinna blurry. I have a cleaner Moe/knife from your avatar but it doesn't have a shiney glowing blade. If you have a clean pic w/a shiney blade, I will use that.

Noter would be the man to ask, but I'm pretty sure he added the glint to the blade himself. :?

The only change I would make to my original noseart is to turn Moe to face the front of the plane.

I also found this pic which is similar to the one you found except with a fisheye lens effect.

Really looking forward to the Spits and Hawks now that I know that I'm an allied pilot. 8)

I could do my skins with the fisheye Moe and turn it around ...

but what if you turn to the oposite heading?!?!?

Plane by Purina?

Interesting scheme, but what are those colors?

Man, don't check the forum for one day at work and you guys are tearin' it up, keyboards must be blazin' all the new messages.

The Moe art is very blurred (to remedy the pixelation) and I did add the glint to the blade, but the new stuff is way cool too. I can take it and do the same red circle, maybe a glint off the barrells...

I'll Italinaize the Spit so's not to have a pink 190, hope to post shortly.

I have an Axis FI insignia. I'll try and email it to ya Falcon.

Still needs some tweaking, the canopy color is still desert camo that I'll go back and change, but the rest is ready for Italy...

Image

and on to Moe's potential art...added the glint, but I can lose it just as easy.

Pretty bright glint. You don't suppose Noter is trying to get you killed Moe? Falcon how's that giant bull’s eye coming on McBiggles custom skins btw? :-$

Lovely Spitfire Noter, almost a stealth fighter in that camo. :badgrin:

The noseart looks great, I love the highlight down the length of the barrel. The glint might be a little big, it almost covers my beautiful face. Or was that the idea. ;)

Cant seem to track down my last working if the He111 template #@#@!!

I'll find some more "historical" markings too.

Any problems?
