Mate if you google modeling jg52 and look in Images you may find something? Scale modellers tend to be anal about colour schemes :)

I have photos of about every plane from that timeframe. I'm already building the skins for 4./JG 52.
So no need for more research on II./JG 52. I'm also doing the skins for 2./JG 51. I've done 11 skins so far, so have seven more to do. I've put them in the TS file-browsers of 6./JG 26 and 8./JG 26 respectively.
I also have pictures of a lot of F-2s of I./JG 52, I./JG 51 and 11./JG 51 as well as 15./JG 27 if anybody is interested.

Just PM me and I'll scan them and send them over to you.

PM sent. I would love to see the 1./JG51 photos you have. I still need to get skins squared away for 1st. Should be interesting as we don't have any skin artists in our unit so I am going to have to learn to do them pretty quick. :shock:

Well, it's not that hard, really. You only need an image program that can handle layers. Gimp will do nicely.
I'm using Photoshop. The template for the Bf 109F-2 is not very good, unfortunately. I had to tweak it heavily.
The colours are all wrong and there is an incredible an unrealistic amount of paint chipping for example. The alpha channel is not very good either, everything is much too shiny due to it.
So I did that from scratch as well.

If anyone would like to have my modified F-2 template for the JG 51, just PM me, I'll put it in the corresponding TS file browser.
