I thought it was allowed in art, too, but I could be wrong.
To be honest as someone whose family were on the receiving end, it makes me feel a little uncomfortable but I recognise that it's a symbol which represented things like peace before the Nazis came along. From what I recall, one of the US Infantry divs (think it was the 45th, but I'm not sure) had a golden swastika on a red diamond as their unit insignia before it was changed to a thunderbird in 1933 (for obvious reasons). If it's there for historical accuracy, then it's there, and it doesn't bother me; when I got Il-2 and hadn't enabled it yet, all the German planes really looked like they were missing something. Also, do they ban any sort of swastika or just the genuinely Nazi ones?
Moving on, this is a very nice skin and looking at your other works that's to be expected. Thanks for the addition to the game and thanks for the enlightening discussions.
