Looks fantastic Henry. :applause:

Are any of your paints for the Catalina available for download yet? Would love to see them released.
 
:applause::applause::applause:Beautiful. Please let me know were I can Download her. Any USCG paint is welcomed in my hanger and or flightline.
 
Thanks, me too thinks this scheme suits the Cat very nice. My paints are not really finnished yet, needs some more work. I'll notify in a post when they are available.:wiggle:
 
A very pretty PBY but highly ficticious. All Coast Guard PBY's had a nose turret and hatch. They are necessary for gaffing the mooring. I got a picture but I can't seem to load it.

well, i certainly cant say anything that hasnt already been said, except for one thing. everything that has been said is an understatement....
This bird was definately made for thatpaint job.. Looking forward to it's completion..
 
I've done some small improvements like aligned the daygloo bars with the leading edges as you can see in the pics and uploaded to flightsim.com. I tried to upload here but haven't got any access here yet.

Am I reading gajit's age correctly or is he Helldiver's poppa? :icon_lol:

Really fantastic paint and making me ever more envious of you people that already have this wonderful flying machine. It'll have to wait until the next check I am afraid. Aerosoft's work is A-One, like A2A, I'd but everything they produce if I had the money!

PM headed your way HenryW.....
 
Without the turret they'd be no way to catch the mooring. That Catalina would have to ground based. Too bad for places like Winter Island.
 
They seem to update the fs.com library once a day, Pam. Occasionally more, but usually once a day.

Regarding Helldiver's comments, I've not tried - how hard is it to switch textures between models? Could you just apply these textures to a model with a nose turret?
