Fellas, this guy was painted blind... I do not have a working copy of the IL-2 demo and am unable to view my work, but I was able to extract the template for the planes.

You will be able to find a non-historic skin for the P-39 at:
www.wingwalkers.org/wwpaint/P39Blue.zip

If any of you would be so kind as to give this guy a test-ride (and take some top, bottom, left and right side, as well as oblique pictures of it, and post someplace), I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

here yea go, I also noticed you didn't paint the flaps but this is understandable since they were left off the template. under your pic you can see a scheme I did and see where the flaps are mapped.

now for the flaps

Thanks, Razor!

It surprises me that I was even this close to getting it right the first time, especially since I cannot get the game to run on my PC (Bad DL...CRC Errors).

The BLKANK.BMP shows only three elevator surfaces and I took a guess as to which one(s) were the undersides and which were the topsides. This is why the splinter pattern is on the belly side and one top-sider is light gray.

I did not even know that the flaps were included in the paint scheme... I assumed that it would only take the color from the trailing edges. Good call on finding that for me.

Also, how were you able to prevent the game from adding ship ID letters and country markings while in-sim? This would come in handy when my squadies want to get on-line and tear-up some tush as a team!

I'd also like to apologise for placing my original request in the wrong section of the forum. My bad.
