Folks!
After a long abstinence of skinning IL-2 aircrafts I thought it might be a good idea to offer the FI community a new skin. I chose the Yak-15 hair-dryer and passed Irish Green colurs onto it. I know that the skin´s not perfect but I´m getting there ...
Any critics, suggestions or even compliments? Anyone likes to get a personalized copy of it?

Very nice Gen
Particularly like the weathering around the jet exhaust.
Does it need the red star on the tail or can we get away without that?
A number 42 version for me would be great!

Well, the red star is my personal insignia ... if you should have an own one I could put it on the tail rudder as well, Neil!

I would like one just like Falcon's, 'cause I know it will fly better, but with a 9 after the 8....
I don't know if I'll be able to make it to the jet-a-palooza that you guys have been discussing, but I'd like the skin anyway... thanks...
You've got red on you.

Give me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl.

Ok ... I´ve changed the position of the insignia from the rudder to the nose and put the number on the tail rudder. Looks much cooler now!
