Thanks all, I really appreciate your support guys! 
I think I'll tweak a little bit more this map and then release it as 'Iwo Jima 1944', so everybody is happy as we don't have strong evidence to say that Iwo Jima wasn't like this before the U.S. bombing. Besides, it's a very interesting period for dogfights where still there were japanese aircraft to fight back the americans. And if anyone wants to use it for 1945, it's up to you!
@agracier: many thanks for your tips, I have lots to learn yet about IL2 map modding! IMHO though, the key thing is to have very good textures like Mixx ones. You can spread cleverly different textures about the map using different techniques, but the thing that really makes the difference is having top notch textures as Mixx's... (and I think making textures is quite fun, actually) so I think I'm going to try to focus more on create good textures if I can, rather than apply them, I think is the most needed thing now, what do you think? I'm waiting eagerly the work gillb57 is doing with the mediterranean using Viking's textures, for example.
