Race skins?

Painters and skinners. Somewhere to show off skins and look for artistic inspiration.

Race skins?

Post by Nightcat » Mon Jul 30, 2007 8:55 am

I'm not sure if there are any in existance but I'd really like to get hold of or create some Fighting Irish race skins - something loud and 'red bull' ish?

Not sure if there are some race like graphics / images to use and such and I have no idea what a good fast aircraft would be good to use but any help - pointers - images would be great.

Some of the bare metal skins but with the colour brightened up a bit would look OK I think.

I like the bare metal skins for the Yak3, P51, P47 and they would be pretty quick.

I'm not sure what would be best for a race but I know some folks use the P51 like you say Nellip.. perhaps that would be a good start with a Irish template and brighten it up some before adding extras... hmm

I'll give it a go and see what I come up with :lol:
