Very very beautiful plane! My favourite from you, Ranwers. I like it and the Battle a lot. What a pity we can't just to add the plane instead substituting other plane. This and cracking DGEN would be awesome stuff....

Last picture...


I got a problem. Two numbers on tail.... two tails in model. I think, that must by stay.

Ranwers I assume is flyable and can carry a torpedo?

Excellent work!

Not a big problem. Maybe you can put the white fuselage band where one of the numbers is, so it will be disguised (at least if it's white)

Yes the same ordnance of the IL-4 (including a torpedo) but historically it could only carry bombs.

Finally, here I am... Sorry, but my one month old son take most of my free time.
I've completed a first version of new plane skin, based on that one posted by ranwers.
Here is a reduced image, I've used many details taken from different 'hack' skins of mine. At now, I haven't got a good He-111H template, so its tail could be incorrect, I've done it by myself.

At this moment, it hasn't panel lines, but actually CZ.1007bis had a very few ones, because of its all-wooden construction, anyway, as I get the final 3D aircraft, I'll add them. Most of other details are temporary.

Ranwers, a question... Blenheim engines had a too different shape from Cant ones, B5N2, D3A1 or even Beaufighter ones could be better. I think that best choice should be to maintain DB-3M ones, but along with a different propeller, without spinner nose. Anyway, later CZ.1007ter, with more powerful engines, had propellers similar to DB-3 ones...

I haven't any webspace to upload this bitmap, so tell me how I can, even by PM, I'll send you a .zip ASAP. Thanks again :!:

Thank You for work. I take some elements from your skin.
But not this way.





I know about engines from Beaufigher -but not passed. From B5N2, D3A1 ? I will see.
When I upload model, maybe someone make better skin.

:lol: ....if Abraxa can make an his good skin.......it will be a good present... :oops:

To ranwers: well, I've only taken that skin you posted before as model for mine...
If something has changed from it, as it seems, simply let me know how it is at now, and I'll upgrade my skin to match better your plane :wink:
Thanks a lot :!:

Progress??

Awesome!!! What about a Potez 631C? Me 110C fuselage, Pe-2 tail and wings and Fiat G-50 engines. Cool!!!!

Hello, I've updated my previous skin , see my post above :wink:
I haven't had a reply, but I've understood from posted images that this plane mod now has a G4M fuselage instead of an Il-4 one, so I've made needed corrections, including deletion of all grey parts. It's really a pity, all Italian planes had Grigio Azzurro lower surfaces ...
I've also deleted all making troubles details, except for necessary tail white crosses and writings that still will be seeable on right wing lower surface :? .
I've kept Blenheim engine, deleting only its exaust pipe, but still I suggest to replace it.

Once I'll have the finished mod, I'll try to add more details and parts. No way, I think, to made a 3 colours camo skin . Thanks again :!:

Hello , the main problem of this aircraft skin is that a single part of it could be used for many different parts of the plane, as it's made from 5 different 3D models...
So, sometimes it causes weird results, like the white tail cross seeable over right wing, see below :? :

A possible solution is to reduce all these mistaken parts, as already has been done, making, for example, a fuselage side working for both sides, left and right, so anything put on this one will appear on both sides, while the part of skin where the other side previously was placed remains free for other use.
Moreover, same thing could be made for wings, using one as "mirror" of the other one, it already happens in game, for example Ju-88A-4 skin have a single lower wing used for both ones. Same could be done for tail elevators and even for rudders, one could be repeated 4 times (2 left and 2 right).
So, most of this problem could be solved... 8)

More to ranwers: I don't know how to hide the Blenheim engine... You're right, DB-3M one isn't good, but a DB-3F or Il-4 one instead, with a Blenheim or similar propeller... They have engine skin coded inside the game, nothing more to see around. Thanks :!:
