Skin Request: Bf-110 III./ZG26

[Specht]

Hello guys, I have a special request for you skinning blokes:

Günther Specht's Bf-110 skin, I believe sources are scarce on the paint scheme he used, and he didn't use just one paint scheme, he changed them througout the years, personally, I don't have a preference to which paint scheme exactly you use, if it's one that he did use in his 110 at the Battle of Britain, it will be good enough for me.

On the link you can see an image of one of the paint schemes he used, and images of a skin made for IL-2 Sturmovik of another paint scheme.

And here you have a model built and painted as his aircraft.

Another model.

A painting that I would give everything in the world to have a huge full quality copy of, or at least know more about it.

And if there is already a skin like this, a link would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance,

Murilo Specht.

Hi Specht
The closest to the skin you want for this Aircraft that already exists are Messerschmitt Bf-110 U8+AK and U8+KK of 2./ZG26, by Graf.
I have put link Below for both Aircraft.
BTW..I can do it if these are not what you need.
Regards
Keith

Thank you check, but those are not exactly what I'm looking for.

If you would be so kind of doing it I would owe you big time!

It is! The flying pencil is his own personal marking, no other planes have it except for his planes, he used that even on his 109's later on.

This could be the day he crash landed after he shot down three spitfires on the same sortie. Quite a feat for someone who had already lost an eye.

Though I think he only got the flying pencil emblem after that occasion... I'm not sure.

Thank you for posting this!

Upon a little research, I found out the picture is indeed of Specht's plane, but at the time of the picture it was being piloted by Rüdiger Proske, and on that day he was shot down over england, being captured as a POW.

He inherited the plane because Specht was wounded.
