Description: USN Skinpack for the Donationware F4F-3 by UncleTgt

This is a set of repaints for the Donationware F4F-3 Wildcat for CFS 2.

The inspiration for these repaints was Talons USMC Aces mission pack - I wanted to try to emulate the appearance of the MS stocker repaint standards whilst building on prior work by Smashing Time, Rob H, & Morton et al.

It continues to grow into a much larger project.

These repaints depict a variety of a/c operating off USN carriers from 1940 to Coral Sea (MAY 42).

VF-41 USS Ranger December 1940 The colourful pre-war scheme.

VF-41 USS Ranger October 1941 An overall Lt Grey schemr from the Neutrality Patrol period.

VF-6 USS Enterprise March 1942 Lt Wilmer Rawie - who scored USN first kill in the Pacific.

VF-3 USS Lexington April 1942 Lt "Butch O'Hare.

VF-42 USS HornetI April 1942 Ens Scott McCuskey.

To install, unzip the download to a temporary folder. Use as replacement textures with the relevant DW_F4F-3 model as appropriate.

Thanks to:

Gramps/FDG for the original aircraft.

Talon for his USMC ACes mission pack that was the inspiration for these repaints.

Morton, Smashing Time & Rob H for their pioneering work on these repaints, all I did was to combine elements from each together with elements of the MS stocker template.

This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.

UncleTgt,

This work is absolutely outstanding. I have to admit I had a chuckle in your description about this mushrooming into a "much larger project." Boy, how man times have I uttered THAT phrase...:biggrin-new:
 
UT I love them,I used them in one of my older campaigns, I now have wildcats for Lexington,Saratoga,Enterprise,Yorktown,Wasp ( I did this one ) and Hornet ( I also did one for Hornet years ago )

The Hornet and Wasp textures I did were lost in an SOH crash years ago.Neither was of your quality though.
