Looking for US early ETO Spits (8thAF, 4thFG etc) | Forums

[FlatSpinMan]

Hi,
I've had a search of the forums and been through FL and M4T but still haven't really found what I'm looking for.
I'd like a generic Spitfire skin with US insignia applied over the RAF roundels (showing through or not is irrelevant). I'll be using this skin for a few escort missions before the Jugs and Mustangs come in.
If anyone can point me to one or make one I'd be most grateful.

Cheers,
FSM

Which mark mate?

Actually I dunno! Whatever the RAF lent the US when the Eagle squadrons formed the 4th FG.MkVbs maybe? The books I've read don't say. I'll have a nit of a check though and clear this up.
I looked through ALL your skins on FL - man you got a lot - 35 pages or so!! How many GBs would it be in total? Also, how many million downloads do you think your skins have got - must be heaps.

Yep. 336th Sq of 4th FG started off in MkVb's.
Here's a link to a really basic profile from the 4thFG's official website.

Have you got one like this lurking around somewhere on your HD?

Look over at 1.Java

There's one early Ami SpitVb skin. Also Servals spit template is available for DL.

for my 71 Eagle Sqn campaign, I'm going to probably make my own skins from Serval's template, just because it wouldn't be that difficult to bust out a set of 4 or 8 with whatever side letters.

Hope this helps.

Edit: Would you like me to see if I can make you a set of 4 or 8 SpitVb's from the squadron in your profile? or just a Generic skin for MAT Manager US markings?

I did a skin of Don Gentiles SpitVb. If you pm your e-mail I'll send it direct if you are interested.

Hey B50 - I'll just see what Bo has already done. I tried that link but unfortunately I couldn't connect to the site. I'll try again later though as I know I have visited it in the past.
I really appreciate the offer of a generic. I'll come begging if/when I need it. Thanks for helping.

Sorry mate, been busy.

If you get no luck give me a holler, I am off work on Sunday so should be able to accomodate

Not at all Kristorf, not at all. Happily enough, Bo_Nidle has emailed me just the thing I needed.
