SF/WO* Aircraft Skins

This skin pack depicts planes of the VMF(AW)-235 "Death Angels" during their first tour of duty in Da Nang, 1966. Those where the dirtiest Crusader's ever seen, but they were also a whole bunch of brave men, who fought beyond the common sense of duty, flying very close air support for the Marines that were pinned down in Khe Sanh or Hue, by exemple.
 
The skinpack contains variations for 16 planes + one generic, as well as a VMF(AW)-235 pilot skin.

Skinpack of VF-53 "Iron Angels" F-8E's during the 67-68 cruise aboard USS Bon Homme Richard.

These skins are for SHIN KAZAMA's F-8E Crusader from the anime/manga AREA-88.
 
I recently saw the new TV series that came out last year from Japan... and HAD to make this plane. Enjoy. :)

RAF Desert, Snow and RAF Grey Jags by USAFMTL
 
Drop tanks for th desert jag included.
Original temps by Sony T.

This is only my second attempt at skinning, so don't be too harsh!
 
The grey Jaguar scheme is the one being used by the RAF today.
 
The snow scheme was applied to a few Jaguars at Coltishall a few months ago when they went on an exercise to Norway.
 
I hope you like them!
 
Credit to Sony Tuckson for the original skins (i just reworked them, he did the difficult stuff).

This is the "Tigerstripe" skin for the Strike Fighters MiG-19S. This is my third attempt at making a skin for SFP1. If you havent already made this plane flyable in SFP1, then visit MarcFighters or visit the SimHQ forums, and ask how to make it flyable; its easy.
This skin represents about 25 hours of work and is my first which draws on historical facets. It was a HUGE learning experiance. I wanted another nice camo skin, that was actually authentic for the MiG-19 as there are few for this plane. The entire paint job is modeled after a Chinese communist MiG-19/J-6 paintjob I found on the internet. This is from an unknown unit in the Chinese Peoples Republic Air Force.

This is the "Blue Guards" skin for the Strike Fighters MiG-19S. While this skin draws on some historical facets, it is basically a fictitious paint job for the MiG. I just wanted a nice skin, that looked authentic for the MiG-19 as there are few for this plane.

This scheme was painted on an F-6 in colours to symbolise the China-Pakistan friendship, during the F-6's retirement ceremony from PAF service at Samungli AB .
The ceremony actually served three purposes; to mark the retirement of the F-6, to welcome the F-7PG into service, and to celebrate the Sino-Pak friendship. The PAF began to rely on China for new technologies after the 1965 India-Pakistan War, when the US suspended its military aid to both countries. India turned to Russia for its arms support, while the F-6 became the first tangible evidence of Pakistan's relationship with China.

This skin depicts a F-6 of Pakistan AF 19 Sqdn "Warhawks" based at Mianwali Air Base.The skin is for Crab_02's F-6.

This skin depicts a F-6A of Pakistan AF 15 Sqdn "Cobras" based at Kamra Air Base.These markings were painted on the CO's a/c of the 15 Sqdn.
This skin is for Crab_02's PAF F-6A.
