Hi.

Are there Finnish skins for Baldy's new Blenheim Mk.I and/or Mk.IV? I have just looked in the library but couldn't find any...

Roxanne-21,

No, at the moment there appears to be a void in the collection for these new bombers. :banghead:

Any chance you are building out a Finnish install? That theater is one of my faves.

Not really...

My old CFS2 desktop died recently, and I am out of flight simulation business until I purchase a new one. I am now sorting out and tidying up all my archives, downloading all the files I need, so things will go faster as soon as I get the new computer.

When I will be re-building my EFTO install (which will come dead last after PTO/CBI, ETO, MTO and WW1) I will need Finnish Blenheims. Baldy's model is the best one out there (DAF Blenheim is too old and Thicko's model hits FPS too much), but it lacks Finnish skins...
 
sheesh, you guys are sooo needy...

I uploaded loads of Baldy Blenheim repaints but didn't do any Finnish skins, thinking there was limited interest - trust Roxanne-21 to point out that glaring gap in the coverage :a1310::beaten:

Something else to go on my "to-Do" list.
 
I am making lists of which aircraft I will need for each theater, with the specific skins I will be using. Not so surprisingly, your work is often listed in the 'skin' column. :wavey:
 
I have a total of 5 mk1s on the go, covering 1940 up to late 1944.

Expect similar coverage for the MkIVs. :playful:
