Hi all, just wanted to share another skinpack with you. This is hopefully the first of many B-17 skinpacks I'll be making, if I can find the time and motivation to finish them.

Some Info:
These two aircraft ("Mission Maid" and "Pakawalup") are some of the few Olive Drab 457th aircraft for which I have photographic evidence of them having the high-visibility blue band painted on the tail. "Early" and "Late" variants of both skins are provided, as I've found photos of both aircraft before and after application of the blue bands.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks for the compliments guys! Glad you like them!

Pack #2 is now available:

This pack includes skins for two 457th BG B-17s, chosen because of their unique look due to the replacement of major sub-assemblies due to combat damage.
The two aircraft are "Flak Dodger," which had a replaced vertical tail section, and "Arf N' Arf," which had its entire rear fuselage replaced. "Early" and "Late" versions are provided for "Arf N' Arf," though its noseart is purely speculation, as I could find no clear photos of it.

I'm planning to make a movie, maybe a serie of movies like for "b29 Superfotress - the road to japan" but with B17 over germany.

So i will need to make a repaint of germany maps....and of course i will need perfect skins like your Jay. If you are ok i will mention you on the movie like i did for other moders on my other previous il2 movies
