IAP27 Eskadrilya 2 BoM Skins (610 Squadron) - V2 - Complete

Post by Gromic » Wed Aug 15, 2018 12:31 pm

Malt asked me if I could help with doing skins for 610 squadron and I gladly said yes. Once all are done I'll ZIP these up and upload them to our skin repository.

Until that time, here's a first taste showing Maltloaf's No.9 MiG3 "For the Motherland!", painted with a yellow spinner that was standard for Eskadrilya 2, flying patrol near moscow during the dusk hours.

EDIT: Skinpack is complete and can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing along with skinpacks from other squadrons.

610 Skinpack overview:

Maltloaf (I) 9
Matt (N) 14
Woza (S) 19
Tyrone (T) 20
Kerdau (R) 18
Miller (C) 3
Jailor (F) 6
Dange (D) 4 - fixed in V2
Leadman (G) 7 - fixed in V2
Johnny (J) 10
Tatts (A) 1
Hawkeye (H) 8
Fishin (P) 16
Jonesy (M) 13 - Added in V2

Historically, only leading officers, or those of even higher influence and excelling pilots were issued slogans, usually by favor of communist party members. This should make them easier to identify as they stand out among the rest (unfortunately, also for the enemy). I have given all aircraft unique weathering on markings as well as different fonts to represent the different styles of factory workers or front line mechanics.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy. It's been a pleasure.

Cheers

EDIT: Version 2 released since I had a brain fart on the initial pack.

Don't worry Woza. Wings are attached. I made extra sure they weren't forgotten (see first post).

Wow, super thanks Grom! As Wosa said, at least we are going to look smart as we get our arses kicked.

We will get them on ASAP.

Fellas,

As I mentioned in the PM to all of you yesterday, there were some issues with skins for No.4 and No.7. These have been fixed. I've also added No.13 as per request from Malt.

Your skinpack is being uploaded as I type this. I've renamed the ZIP file to "IAP27 Eskadrilya 2 MiG3 Skinpack- V2 (Former 610)" to avoid confusion. Please revisit the skin repository (first post), download and overwrite with these when prompted.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience. My mind missed a step, with conversion to the dds format, during my skinning rampage.

Cheers

Grom
