I'll say you have Red Dog. I've been out balloon busting in the Chambers plane. Lots of fun that. I see you posted that pic 3 hours ago... she done yet. Just kidding, kinda.

Well..It's been a long time since I had a chance to do some more skinning, and today I thought 'Sod it' :grin:

This Camel is a representation of an aircraft from 112 Squadron RAF.

I only had a side view to work from, so not sure if it's totally accurate, but it's one I have been wanting to do for a while.

(Note the white 'swastika' on the Tail)...obviously used before the 'You know who's' got a hold of it :grin: )

 

I shall upload in a bit, so if you want to try it..enjoy

Hey, Widow, nice to hear and see something from you.

You may have these illustrations already, but worth a try.

You may notice another swastika there. It is just a very old symbol,

that was not created, but only used by the Nazis.

Hi Olham..thank you.

 

Wow, yes, I have done a few of those (Kissenbeth's Camel, The Russian one and now this 112 sqd one)...But there are a few there I have never seen!....that Yellow, green and blue is almost as colourful as your German aircraft!...though, us Brits never seemed to 'quite' get it did we?....lol

That's what I thought, Widowmaker - that yellow Camel should get skinned by you.

It is absolutely as colourful as the German designs. Will you try it?

Posted (edited)

Yes, the Swastika is originally a Hindu symbol I believe?

 

Yes, I might just give that one a go mate!!! :clapping:

 

It's quite a small picture though..do you have a link to something a bit bigger?

That's nice too! (I wouldn't dare do a Belgian Camel...that's Stumps territory!! :grin: )

Wow, a Russian Tripe?!?

Just googled to find more about the "Wings of Horus" Camel, but didn't.

That is definitely a very difficult design to make.

I feel a bit exhausted, without knowing what from. I did an American SPAD,

which is one page back; and now I'm thinking about a Marineflieger (Navy) Albatros

with the Naval three colour Lozenge I saw from Bullethead's DFW-Design.

But I haven't found any pics yet.

Have to say m8.... If you had done that Spad for the contest, you would have made the competition EXTREMELY Close!...It's just stunning!! :salute:

Yes, if...

But what had me irritated with the skinning contest, was rather that I had thought,

we should create new skins. And then a totally normal, re-done skin wins.

Didn't get that, to be honest.

Yeah... I mean I would never detract from the Winning Skin, it was superb...But, I too was under the impression that it was 'design your own Skin' contest too....but hey ho!...it was fun anyhow :)

Yes, indeed, it was! And we have sure learnt a lot about skinning.

And of course the skin was great - didn't mean to make it down.

Just was a sort of misunderstanding. Perhaps we will have another contest

some day - when some new planes are out? Nupe 28; Sopwith Snipe; DVIII?

Good night for now!

stumpjumper, Olham, Red-Dog, Widowmaker, Bullethead, outstanding recent work on all your parts, (hope I didn't miss anybody). I like each and every one of 'em, but I think my personal favorite of the bunch is Bullethead's. Really looks great and captures the feeling of that B/R plane very well.

 

Please keep those creative projects going, and post the files when you have them done so we might all share in your masterpieces.

 

Cheers!

 

Lou

Sorry these screens are dark but I was late coming home from an escort mission. I had some extra ammo and decided on a tree near the field for target practice. To my surprise I shot down the tree.:yikes: I have never noticed this before. Is it new with the patch?

 

Really enjoying this game!
