All new paint for freeware ALPHASIM Grumman XF5F-1.zip 2024-06-28

The Cat You Did Not See! This is a hypothetical texture for the FS8/FS9 freeware AlphaSim Grumman XF5F-1 Skyrocket. I based the texture on a scale model I had done of the Skyrocket using top color of old Navy Blue-Gray and lower old Navy Light Gray. The stripes on the vertical tailplanes are for carrier landings. I deleted the central red circle, as the time period I am representing had just eliminated them. The package contains two sets of texture, one for the prototype and one for the long-nose version. All textures have been reworked from scratch and resized in a few instances and are in 888-8 32-bit format for the ultimate FS9 look. I wanted to paint the spinner hubs red, but could not for the life of me find a texture map for them. Seeing as how all others were that drab neutral gray, I figured they must be defaulted to the model. I had a little fun and put a Panthera Pardus Nigresco at the controls, is nothing sacred? :>) Caz
