Some Pirate hunting skins, to be used in Ba5tard5word's campaign.

The British schemes are in mostly accurate Royal navy colours, but with a twist, WW1 roundels and wing markings that evoke a nautical feel from the golden age of piracy. Some may notice that the crossed cannon emblem is borrowed from the Imperial lego sets. Big Grin

The Italian skins are inspired by the colorful history of Italian aviation, you may see elements from various schemes, from world war 1 fighters to the Schneider trophy competition Macchis.

There are the high visibility garish/ridiculous schemes intended to avoid confusion with pirate craft at all costs, and also the more subtle ocean coloured ones for more discreet missions.

All schemes are of course mostly fictional, but most elements including colours, emblems and stripes have a historical background, apart from the lego one of course. Googly

Anyway less blabber and more screenies as people often demand in this forum:
































Default markings-friendly versions included.

Templates are by the usual suspects, Jestersink/Abraxa/Tonyt and Serval. I have been known to make my own templates from time to time, but when such great work exists already, I see no reason in trying to re-invent the wheel. Thanks guys!

Up for download at M4T.

Updated, I wasn't happy with some of the Italian ones and I redid them and added the British ones.

Thanks again for working on this, like I said I'll keep an eye on the progress and add them into the campaign when they're ready.

And those British ones look awesome!
