I don't see competition, merely a very good addition . Next on roll; an F9F if Ark Royal colors

Still researching for a good Ark Royal skin.......

I know it is fictional, but all aircraft involved in Suez had yellow and black (D-day style) stripes that were applied on board the carrier. Having said that, it might ruin the nice lines of the Panther!

I like these 'fictional' paints, please keep doing them, how about an FAA 'Admirals Barge' (often an odd colour like red!) or something from Boscombe Down?

I'm aware of the striping and have some attempts made to fit them on the Panther. Still not happy with how it fits on the tailplane due to the characteristic shape of the plane. Perhaps later, when happy with it i'll release an extra version. Thanks for the nice comments.

Have you uploaded it here? If so could you provide a direct link? I find the Sim Outhouse file repository a nightmare to navigate at times.

This should do the trick.

Great paints Rene, I hope you release one with the suez stripes though, it really needs them!

Hi mate. Working on it. I just have one anomaly to battle (white encircled); a weird curve/bend in the model. Gonna take me a while (pixel by pixel) to defeat that thing.

If it's any help, the stripes were hand painted with a brush by whoever the CPO's could find to do it!

.................. or something from Boscombe Down?

Yes a Raspberry Ripple would be cool

here's some examples, http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=135927

The T2 VAAC Harrier on page 2 is a great scheme

René, this last one from the Suez region is definitely a winner !

I just love what you did with those stripes...

Looking forward to any other "what ifs" that you care to post !
