Title: Sturmoviks with "strange camo"
Post by: CzechTexan on March 08, 2018, 11:54:59 AM

"Just some weeks before the war outbreak, an unclear order to camouflage planes was issued, but without precise instructions. In general this order was ignored till a following and more clear order of June 20, 1941, but in some cases it led to interesting non-standard camouflages of difficult interpretation on the base of the original green livery."
 
On Massimo Tessitori's site there is a page called "Strange Camo" for sturmoviks.  http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/il-2/il2-camo/il-2early1941/strangecamo/strangecamo.htm

On another page http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/il-2/il2-camo/il-2early1941/il2-early1941.htm  you can see that same plane and others below it with strange camo. 

The first one (see below) has already been skinned and is in the IL-2 Single Seaters megapack found on M4T. 
Is it possible for someone to skin the other three (see below)?

Sounds good CharlesVDB59.
The first pic is a Sturmovik that has already been skinned by Hayate and it's found in M4T's mega pack.
I have a WIP skin of #10 in the last pic (see below).  Have not added black paint and have not done the fuselage, yet.

Not at all  ;) It's a good start, just needs some editing, altering colors and simulate weathering on panels, etc... It's a long job to have something really satisfying, but it's worth the time !

Your Green with Black blotches looks pretty good.  You can do the one in the second pic if you want to.

I got #10 skin almost finished.  Just touching up some stuff today...if I have the time.

Is it finished?  If so, you can upload it to Mission4Today or somewhere else.  If you'd rather just send it to me by email, you can do that. 
Mine is finished.  I used Hayate's template and his all-green IL-2 as a base.  You could probably transfer those black blotches from your skin to Hayate's all-green IL-2 pretty easily, if you wanted to.

I made a blank, one with stars only, and one with the #10

Charles, I hope you don't mind that I added your black blotches to my Hayate template.  I'll include your name in the credits :)  I did edit the blotches and the big black fuselage blotch is all new.

If you, or anyone else would like to have these, I can upload them to M4T soon.
I was going to wait to include them in my Battle for Smolensk for the early IL-2 but I can upload the skins separately.

I just uploaded two campaigns, Battle for Smolensk _Yak-1 and Battle for Smolensk _Su-2, to M4T.
They're still Pending to be downloaded but they should be downloadable soon.

The Yak-1 campaign includes all the skins needed for all three campaigns, including the WIP IL-2 campaign...which uses the "strange camo" skins.
