Storch paints

The Polish, French and Laos schemes have just been uploaded. Next three to be uploaded will be, Polish Airforce, Norwegien and Finnish.
 
I have just uploaded a set of updated textures for the first three uploads.
a few tweaks to the rivets and things.
 
Them French didn't half spread them about, here's another couple of donated aircraft.
 
Have you considered this one Steve?

Lebanese and Cambodian?!? This little plane sure got around! (Though I suspect most of the French hand-me-downs were Morane-Saulnier MS.500-series Criquets.)

It's cool that SteveB's repaints are generating interest in this earlier release.
 
yeah, the Fi156/MS.500 is a great little flyer, it can go practically anywhere, clearing in the forest.... no problem, on a short beach.... no problem. Great looking schemes. this thread has made me dig up my old paintkit i made for it and set back to work :ernae:
**EDIT screenshot coming of my basic paintkit....
 
as promised images of my storch paintkit... many things being added as i go along....

while i'm here.... anyone have a fix for that sunk tailwheel?
 
I changed the contact point of the tail wheel. Let me try to explain.

Go to the contact point section in the aircraft config and change the bold line


[contact_points]
static_pitch = 15
static_cg_height = 6.2
tailwheel_lock = 0
gear_system_type = 0
max_number_of_points = 6

point.0 = 1, -19.25, 0, -1.9, 1500, 0, 0.4, 45, 0.25, 2.5, 0.88, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
 
"Yes, some Luftwaffe repaints would be very nice. Enjoying your Swiss skin at the moment Steve! Mike :ernae:"


Well I have been toying with an North Africa cammo.
 
I find that after enough vodka everything goes patchy and blured easily enough.:friday::faint:
 
Both of my grandfathers would turn in their grave if they knew I was suggesting this, seeing as they fought (one killed) on the Republican side of the Spanish Civil war ...

But I can't help but think that some form "what if" early fifties Ejercito del Aire paint would be nice ... I remember some amazing vineyards and olive groves in Andalucia that I wouldn't mind revisiting ... hmmm .... fresh bread, Manchego cheese, fresh olives, and a glass (or two) of fine Rioja to wash it down ... :friday:

In my indulgence, I might get caught giving El Caudillo the finger as he overflies in his JU-52 ... in which case I'll definitely need to sneak away in a Storch parked nearby ... :rapture:

well as I have just about finished this one, I'll have a go at a spanish scheme for you, 1950's ish.
