UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2010 EEurgh! Just been having a look through my early attempts at skinning...and remembered doing these, and thinking at the time..."Thats not Bad" So embarrasing!...I used to put pics up of these, and all you wonderful guys on here, used to humour me, and tell me to keep going...and they're really good!...Bless you all!!...Liars to a Man! I hope my lack of talent has been a bit better hidden of late...But thank you for all your support!...I really appreciated it at the time...and still do! So, here for your amusement...once more I present........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast 153 Posted April 8, 2010 We all have to start somewhere... and compared to my efforts of late these don't look too bad... just remember that these where your stepping stone to where you are now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoomzoom 2 Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) That being said though, I do think you managed, on the first Albatros DV alone, to incorporate EVERY colour in the "R-O-Y-G-B-I-V" spectrum. That is a feat in and of itself. ZZ. Edited April 8, 2010 by zoomzoom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2010 Ah yes, indeed ZZ I flew that Alb in Campaign...the pilot was shot down and killed second time out!...and whilst I can use the skin, under the title of 'Artistic Licence'...the pilot's demise may well be thought of as 'Poetic Justice' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted April 8, 2010 We all started much smaller, but then we grew. Looking at our first projects would surely feel all of us like you now, Widowmaker. Which is the proof for ourselves, that we have made progress! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 8, 2010 It was you who got me started on the Skinning Olham! (do you remember the Widowmaker Sopwith Camel you made for me?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted April 8, 2010 Yes, I do, but couldn't find it anymore here. Think it had a black spider, a "Schwarze Witwe" (Black Widow) on it as an emblem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 9, 2010 I don't think they are that bad.. you're setting your self up though.. let's see the extrodinary new ones? Haha...well, it's just a fun posting really. I don't mind too much, whether people like my skins or not...(I hope they do of course) I have done a few in the download section, I am reasonably happy with....but there is always room for improvement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rabu 9 Posted April 9, 2010 I like em.. lots of talent on this forum, always amazing to see the skins, videos, etc. that members create.. keep em coming! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hasse Wind 46 Posted April 9, 2010 Widowmaker, you're being too harsh on yourself. I couldn't do skins half as good as those even if my life depended on it. PS. Though that SE5a skin certainly isn't your best work ever... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
