T6 (RCAF Harvard) repaints

SOH-CM-2024
In FS2020 we had some really good RCAF repaints for the Harvard but these are few and far between for the FS2020 version, and the two we do have are postwar. Anyone know of any repainter planning to issue wartime RCAF T6 liveries? (BCATP era).

I have no plans, but what you could do is convert the 2020 ones to 2024 standard

I'll leave that to someone else Jankees. I'm putting 12 hours a day into writing the new Flight Sim book right now, and would not be able to learn the new skill to make those modifications at this time. Thanks for the suggestion however.
 
The ideal would be one of the first two (46 or 54) at this page... https://harvards.com/our-aircraft/? since both of these served in the BCATP years.

Jankees, please understand I was not expecting you to do it, but if you did, that would be a bonus to say the least.

And... once my book is published, you will receive a signed copy as a thank you for everything you have added to this community... whether or not you repaint a Harvard!!.

Ps a 2020 version of 46 already exists https://flightsim.to/file/23870/asobo-t-6-texan-c-fhwx-2010
 
Another vote for Canada! My great uncle flew the Fleet Finch and Harvard before going off to the Med in a Vickers Wellington.

(And Jankees, if you're breaking out the wartime Canada paintbrush, would love to see a Canadian Rapide or two! There are some nice RCAF and civilian Canadian schemes.)

Then you are going to LOVE my new book. Stay tuned, I shall reveal the subject and title in about two weeks.

OK, so I repainted C-FHWX #46 rather than convert KCGB's version, here it is in 2020, which is all I have available here in the Netherlands. I'll convert it to 2024 this weekend when I'm home again, leaves me time to still sort a few details.

Thank you Jankees. Beautiful.
 
Jankees, that looks stunning!

Kenneth, I can do a couple of liveries from my C-FVMG #412 template in GIMP if you are planning to use the 2020 model. I don't know about the 2024 Asobo model, I can't find any useable files to form a model for Substance Painter. But I still have the 412 template for GIMP, just need to change a few markings. Email me some images if you'd like, or point me in the direction of the liveries you are seeking. Cheers!

Hi Doug

Let me take a look... I will use this one from JanKees when flying FS2024. As for 2020, seems to me that "2766" outside the Haldimand library in Dunnville would make a suitable companion when using your scenery.

Jankees, you might also consider releasing that 2020 version in addition to the 2024. Looks great. And what a choice you made... I flew in "46" three decades ago.
