Hi Shado,

Nice work mate.

One thing I would say to look at is your roundel colours, you seem to have differant shades of blue and red for fuselage and wing upper and lower wing rounds and tail flash

[Shado]

Hi Kristorf, yes I got to get a grip of that, Ill have to fix it now youv'e pointed it out

EDIT: yes thats better, also founf a bit of stray texture, Quality control was a bit lacking

@Shado

Did you have a photo of Freeborn's ZP+C Spit? I ask because, with rare exception, virtually all the images (profiles, photos) of 74 Sqdn Spits, for example Sailor Malan's ZP+A, have shown the unit/acft ID letters as being horizontally aligned rather than 'stepped'/non-aligned. Both aligned and non-aligned letters were used by RAF (I believe more of the former style).

I do not yet have COD, but it appears that all the default Spit skins have non-aligned/stepped letters...this oddity/error was noted during the many months of pre-release updates, but was apparently not changed upon release.

However, it now appears that skinners can apply either style of lettering....Recently I noticed in the Kristorf's skins thread that he had done an historically accurate 54 Sqdn aligned Spit KL+B. Also, here is Reflected's Malan ZP+A skin with aligned letters:




In a nutshell, I am curious why you chose the non-aligned lettering style for your Freeborn ZP+C skin.

Meanwhile, many Thanks to you (and the other skinners) for all your work/contributions.

Ok so this is wrong then? it's all I have used to work from.

I got to say I'm a bit dissapointed i got it wrong.
