You're right. My (French) reference book that I did a quick check in is not. "Messerschmitt Me109 Volume II" by Dominique Breffort and Andre Jouineau, page 78. Never buy books published by Histoire et Collections. They have so many careless mistakes and unreliable "facts" in that you can't catch all of them. Anyway, with an S-99, you can do a G-6AS, G-10, G-10AS and G-14AS.

Wake up, Kevin! You're a bit slow off the mark... The Avia S-99 is the local redesignation for the Bf109g-14. Then with TK's Spits and Mustangs, there's business to be done!

After that? Well, there might be a market for a nice S-99...

View File Mustang MkIV, Royal Air Force, 1944-45 Mustang MkIV, Royal Air Force, 1945 These will add a specific version of the P-51D included in the SF2 Israel Expansion Pack. Includes serial numbers and correct markings for Mustang MkIV aircraft of the RAF in early 1945. Admittedly, few RAF Mustangs remained unpainted, but there were some! The squadrons represented served in North-West Europe and in the Mediterranean area. This will run only in SF2I or a merged install including SF2I and the SF2I Expansion Pack.

Thanks! I'd rather leave the USAF stuff to someone who knows his way around the USAF! I don't really know much about it - you'll see if you look that all my skins are either WW2 German or British and Commonwealth. The USAF is not my field of specialisation. Kevin maybe?

This is going to be the aircraft of the year! Monty, you're an ace!

Beautiful work!

Nice work, needed doing. Uploading soon?

Looks brilliant!

OK, thanks! Off to look...I can think of any number of places to use them! Edit - Actually, they ARE the up-to-date ones. (February 2010) But I admit I toned down the colours in the roundels to make them match the ones I was using. Meanwhile, if it's whiffing you want...

We've got loads of beautiful RAF Squadron flashes that are begging to be plastered all over the new Meteors and Vampires! If I say I was glad when I realised they already existed...

I shouldn't worry - most of my CFS3 skins run to 75-80,000KB for a single 2048x2048 sheet... That's about 60+ layers. Now if you bear in mind that TK's models have four or five sheets... Rivets are easy - set your brush to single pixel and then the spacing ("pas" in French - my Photoshop is unfortunately linguistically challenged!) to say 500 or 600, and you just brush them in. I usually do them white with a bit of added shadow, and then tune them down to fit.

Cheers, Kevin! I thought you might like it. And decals are always welcome!

Grief, don't! That's the main reason why I do very little work for SF compared to CFS3, where everything is on one easy-to-understand sheet... In theory! Meanwhile, Kevin's right about most Mustang IVs being painted, but a few weren't. Anyway, call it artistic licence, or something. I expect somebody will want them!

Seen something, too - the bump intake just below the forward canopy on the starboard side - you can see it clearly with the two pics of the model and a real one - shouldn't be there. Instead there's a sort of circle with a hole in it. The bump is on the port side only. I'm doing a series of 109Gs for CFS3, so I'm looking for details, too! Beautiful model it will be... It already is!

Looking VERY good! Can't wait!

View File Spitfire F.MkIXc, South African Air Force Spitfire MkIXc, No.4 Sqn, SAAF These will add a SAAF-specific MkIXc version of the Spitfire included in the SF2 Israel Expansion Pack. Includes serial numbers for early production F.MkIXc ("MkIXA") aircraft, squadron and individual codes and correct SAAF markings for the period. A large number of early MkIX aircraft were conversions from MkV airframes; if you look up the serials of these aircraft, they will fall in blocks attributed to MkVs. All the aircraft represented in this pack were either converted to MkIX standard, or in the earliest MkIX production blocks. This will run only in SF2I or a merged install including SF2I and the SF2I Expansion Pack. Submitter ndicki Submitted 06/01/2010 Category Spitfire  

View File Spitfire MkIXc, 31st FG USAAF, Tunisia Spitfire F.MkIXc, early production, USAAF 309th Fighter Squadron, 31st Fighter Group, Tunisia, May 1943. These will add a USAAF-specific MkIXc version of the Spitfire included in the SF2 Israel Expansion Pack. Includes squadron and individual codes and correct USAAF markings for the period. 31st FG originally flew Spitfire MkIXc aircraft; these were later replaced with the MkVIIIc, before the Group was finally equipped with P-51B/C Mustangs in mid-1944. This will run only in SF2I or a merged install including SF2I and the SF2I Expansion Pack. Submitter ndicki Submitted 06/01/2010 Category Spitfire
