Hey Jaypack,
The skins are looking good mate. Couple of little things I noticed, and these are just my opinions for my own skins...
As cool as the internal engine details look, the aren't needed on the 109 from the F model on. The Emil is the only 109 that models damage on the engine cowls to expose the engine guts. The loop antenna on the G6-K4 sample their textures from area of the big FBS logo on the header, so you can paint it to match your cammo pattern. Just be sure to replace or create a new FBS tag for credit.
Also, if you use Revolver's or FBS' pits for the corresponding models....instead of the Emil pit that you currently have, it just adds a little bit more "realism" to the skins. However, if you prefer the look of the Emil pit, don't change a thing. Make your skins your way, the way you like them :wink:
Another little detail thing would be to check out the "detail study" that Sir Jay QC did for the 109s a couple years ago...I think Revolver included it in one of his 109 templates. It pinpoints all the little bits and bobs you can paint to change the color of the prop blades, gunsight structure and a slew of other stuff. I think the original template that thing came from is still up at the France Simulatation Magazine website...just Google it and look for Sir Jay QC's templates.
Anyhow...the work is really good man. Cheers for sharing the skins!
