Front veiw of this aircraft.
I found only one skinof his Il-2 but it is made with lots of colour and lines/rivets mistakes.
Does anyone have a photoe, wich showing a fuzelage emblem of his Il-2?
Unfortunately not. What you show is the best I had also. I even did not know what type of IL-2 it exactly was.
I must have the psd lying around, so if you can tell me which IL-2 template has the best matching panellines and which colors are the correct ones, I'll update the skin.
I found it in a magazine back then. it said that the type of IL-2 was unknown.
I made the skin in the early days, so don't really remember which magazine it was.
I asked around and so far, it seems that this IL-2 is subject of discussion. It is very likely that the colorscheme as presented at the profile is not correct. The pattern is very unlikely for VVS.
I'll redo this IL-2 soon with colors from the list here (which I did not have back then) and with a dark/light green scheme.
This Il-2 is already made by very good skinner, and here in Russia we are discussing the emblem... And NUMBER of this aircraft...
After our new VVS skins page will be opened - You could find this skin there Together with many, LOTS of other skins (standart and personnal "Ace") in RIGHT colours, 100% historycally
