What chance of a new P-38 Model, with correct mesh and UV mapping for skins?

well at-least 125 people were interested enough to have a look

It's possible (i.e. not associated with the company that shall not be named)... and it'd be great to have for those New Guinea map missions for sure.

Yay! I hoped someone would spot the potential for the New Guinea Map. It would be perfect and with authentic skins it could be incredibly immersive!?

Oh all these ideas cross my mind... I wish I had some talent in the 3D so I could help. The trick with the early model P-38s is that they have a somewhat different cockpit than the later models so it'll need a fairly extensive remodelling. It'd be worth it... just that it needs to be done.

The mod early 38's are pretty good, but they are based off of the original 3d which is starting to look REALLY dated!
I think its pretty astounding that none of the 3d modders have taken up the challenge of updating the -38's 3d like they have done with the 109, Zero, P-40 etc.

Gibbage's modded versions of the P-38F and G are very good, although they still have the mirrored skin problem.

Since it appears that there are no longer restrictions on MTO content, the P-38F would be a welcome addition to the North African theater.
