MiG-3 in AVG Markings. Yes a Whatif
« on: February 16, 2019, 10:44:10 AM »

Posted this over on M4T as well.

I think this is a fantastic idea from Clave.  I am not adept enough to try this myself.  Hope someone is interested?

It would be interesting to write a mission for it ; maybe an early prototype sent with the Soviet Volunteers Group, abandoned in China and then found by Chennault - or some other and totally wtf what-if story  ;)

About 12 years ago I did a few "What if" skins with such paint-schemes.
Unfortunatelly not too many people were keen on flying an FW-190 painted as a "WW1 Red Baron" aircraft and
so I put that project aside. Never posted them anymore.
I have been doing such skins for myself since then. Lots of fun to fly but people find it too crazy.

Max, all your skins are welcome no matter what anyone else says.....

in fact often we clowns will often intentionally fly outlandish or odd skins on our sunday sessions!

You know what they say, fuck the haters Max. You should totally post them, there's plenty of other people that will appreciate your work.

I learnt that over time, there's always people out there that will frown upon stuff, but never let them stop you from sharing your work. 8)

Thanks Ghost129er, you are correct,
Over the years I have always included a few "what-if & Fantasy" skins into my posted Skin-Packs.
They are there to use,  if people want.

That way everyone can enjoy flying which ever aircraft they want - Historical or Fantasy paint-schemes.
There are still many more which I will post in the future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fresco23,
Thanks very much for your post good friend.
Lovely skins and details. I love them all !  8)

You guys ROCK-N-ROLL the IL-2-1946 skies !  :D That is great fun

Cheers

I've always like what if models/skins etc.  Gets the imagination going.  Nothing wrong with that.

Max,  Ghost129er is right, there will always be a certain few around to 'bad mouth' what others do,
ignore them and carry on. ]thumbsup[
