About the 109 markings, is SoW using the same type of markings placement code as IL2 - putting the markings on over top of the existing skin? I had thought the lines and rivets and weathering were to be on separate layers and the markings would be under those layers. Right now it looks like IL2: "Sticker" markings stuck on the plane rather than looking like they are actually part of the paint scheme (rivets and panel lines, scratches, etc should show through the markings, not be obliterated by them). This was cool in 2001, not now.
The Spitfire markings look realistic, the 109 markings look like an afterthought.
