Today I've uploaded two skins depicting the same aircraft, the Bf109E-3 flown by Hans-Karl Mayer of I./JG53. First versions is from October 1940 when the the aircraft still had the red ring around the nose, then the second version depicts the aircraft in November 1940 when the Ace of Spades emblem had been reapplied. Gone were also the dark colored exhaust shields and much of the mottling seems to have faded due to cleaning and polishing.

B-E-A-utiful Cpt-Farrel.. Do you use colour profiles as reference or black & White photos?

Are you planning any more skins from JG 53?

Thanks! I do plan some further JG53 skins, at least one more E-3 and then there'll be E-1's and E-4 later (If they're added to the game...!)

I use photos as my primary reference. Profiles can be helpful but I wouldn't want to make a skin based on a profile alone unless there was a clear written description by the author laying out the reasons for the choice of colors, markings etc.

There's just too many profiles out there with various errors that have crept in for various reasons, even from the greatest artists.
