Okay one last Fishbed request from me, then I'll take a break for a while.  I started out just looking for F-13s and trainers for the new models and then I said "screw it" and went overboard and just posted everything, especially when I realized the old DDR PFM pack has been down for years and is unlikely to come back.  I think I have a Fishbed addiction.

Early bare metal F-13, when it was a frontline fighter:


(There's plenty more of these out there but they're identical apart from number so I left them out of this post.)

And some camo repaints from after the F-13 was retired from the fighter role and reassigned to low-level reconnaissance:

OKAY I'M DONE I PROMISE

NVA-LSK Fishbeds are WIP on my table.
So far finished 15 Skins.
Last stage was I built a bare Metal Template
and a Template for the various Paintschemes of their
3 or 4 colour Types.
The Template isn't Skinner friendly, very fiddling exhaustive
as parts are spread across the Template and not for
flowing seamline painting.
Some of my 3 & 4 Tone variants are ready others not yet ready.
Both Templates lack specific Service Decals, which would be the step after
I could do the paintjobs right.
Please be patient as I'm at it, but it's not in a stage that I could let them
go, as they hurt eyes.

Amazing how elegant were old variants of the MiG-21 !!!

wait, knoch, you are working on a true template for these birds?

I asked the original Template Owner multiple times, but he refused to answer.
So this is going to the brooom stick for us to use.
I'm trying to solve the colour problem on our free Template here.
You can't choose real colour as your base is that bare metallic void.
It changes everything to an ugly node and Bare Metallls look like clones.
Had no real time fiddling recently, but it's on the desk and in the
built.

Another option I'm going to puzzle a DCS Template into one of ours.
Before I would start that, I must do spring cleaning on my rig, such a task is Ram and
other things heavy, as you work with huge files. My Rig is old, some say not capable,
but it did such things in the past, if you know what you're doing.
All I need is holidays and a free week for my own.

I'm so glad someone is doing even a few of these!  East Germany really is underrepresented in this game for some reason so anything you make will be most appreciated.  And I'm intrigued by the possibility of a new template.  I agree with you that the existing one is a bit...underwhelming.
