I started doing this skin and when I looked at the photo showing the kill markings for some strange reason I decided to recreate as best I can the markings. I checked my database and they match even added the correct dates and cross referenced everything. You loose a lot of the detail however with the skin. Anyway looking at the tail section the profile had the patch as green but I feel it was most likely a repair done and was probably in red-brown. I hope I'm right I also put the correct werk no in even though in the photo it has a white outline if I did this it was too small and spoilt the affect so left the no 1432 in black. Got the cockpit color changed exact so looks pretty good to me anyway. So in away I'm rather proud of this one and hope you all like it also.

I have a couple of additional version on my site coming up.
Anyway here is the one I favoured. I have done the blue slightly darker because the game bleaches the colors especially light blue.

Bf 109E1 Stab III.JG26 (I+I Werner Bartels WNr 6296F shot down over Kent July 1940. Here my version of this well documented aircraft.

He got shot down by a Spitfire. In the photo the Stab Bar was damaged in combat so I didn't apply the scratches I leave you guys to add your own bullet wholes.

Hi guys here is another early bird for you.
I believe that the 'Top Hat' emblem was only on one side I haven't any photo's which show it on both sides.

Well sorry boy's I was cleaning out some files on my site and I noticed an IL2 skin of Canon's had this aircraft having a red strip and red band on the 'Top Hat'. I doubled checked the photo and I believe he nailed it. The profile from Osprey does not have this however and on further checking with friends they agree the Osprey profile is correct. So I'll have to corrected this skin again as it should also be similar to Ospreys profile but the red hat band is correct. I have also been told by a Luftwaffe expert mate8 of mine that the 5./JG52 early models only had the emblem of the little devil on one side so will correct these to keep thing in there historical context. Sad as it does look nicer on both sides. I'll leave both version on my site. Also this means that the photo date could also be wrong but will get back to you guys on this one.
Sorry about this...

Matthew
Oh BTW if anyone notices that anything is not correctly historical pls point it out as I don't want to compound errors!

PS I'm slowly going through my Bf 109E section and have started to remove the old IL2 skins as my website has far exceeded my file limit and also that IL2 Battle of Stalingrad is about to be launched so have to make room for their new skins. If anyone need's any IL2 skins I'll email them to who ever needs them.

Hi Guys
In this photo you can see 3 aircraft and all are different.
I did the unusual no '5' which is common to two.
The yellow 12 has white wing tip plus tail yellow 15 has white tail and no white wing tip And Yellow 5 has neither.
Hope you like them.
