ShrikeHawk 384 Posted June 29, 2016 I've made some new skins for MM/TMF Corsairs. Last time uploaded I noticed there are special rules for posting mode to their work. So how/where do you contact them to ask permission to post updates? Anyway. Here are some screenies of the new skins. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrench 9,849 Posted June 29, 2016 since I've done more work on our Corsair than anyone, I'd so go for it btw, the VF-84 (Bunker Hill "arrow") has already been done for the -1D, and should be in the uploaded package here. vF-17 has also been done, both for the -1A and Birdcage the VBF-84 (Shangra-la "lightning bolt") is also availabe, in -1C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrikeHawk 384 Posted June 29, 2016 So does that mean I have the MM/TMF's blessing? And I hope you don't mind my redoing the same squadrons. Those are my favorites, it so happens. The number decals are yours I believe. I just wanted a darker color palette. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,849 Posted June 30, 2016 the ones as released are supposed to have the "worn, not really maintained look" so common on all USN aircraft of the time (and the orignal skins were by Sundowner, with -very- little help by me <grin> That is my actual only objecrtion == too clean and not weathered enough. But it you want to, you've got my permission! other than that, perhaps some of the other units could be done?? The bitch is, running down the individual carrier's air groups, finding out with squadron used the Corsairs (and and which sub-variant) and then do up the "G" system marking. (interesting to note on the chard below, the "single with dot" for HORNET is not listed...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrikeHawk 384 Posted July 1, 2016 Sundowner? Yipes. His skins are legendary. I'd best bring my A-game to do them justice. Luckily, in my skins I use a bazillion different layers. So adding G-System markings is pretty easy. Weathering was already there, just subdued. I thought folks might complain about too much of it. Here's some shots of an Essex Corsair with the weathering turned up. Better? A Franklin one is also in the works. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,849 Posted July 1, 2016 might want to double check ALL the TMF Corsairs, and the skins I've done --- VBF-83 (Essess) is one of them but it do look a bit better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
