US103_Tobin 2,252 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 I want to give supreme thanks to Vonrd for providing me with something I've never had before. This skin is not just a paint job for me, but has given me an identity that I can be proud of. Originally I was going to post screen shots of each version that we went to; however, this became so many that that became too much. Suffice it to say that Vonrd went through 8 major revisions in order to end up with what you see here; the latest and final one being completed only yesterday. "The 12 Days of Christmas" certainly has meaning for me with respect to Vonrd! Each day he returned a version that corrected, added or adjusted things from the last version. He has the patience of a saint! I can't possibly thank him enough. Although I sure he'll add it to the next major revision, you can download it now, here: Luftritter Dr.I skin And before Larner or Talbot beats me to it, NO, the "LR" does not stand for "Left" and "Right", LOL! I gotta admit I sure provided them with fodder for joking, HAHA! But I'll take my lumps and keep it, I love it!

Kliegmann 1,074 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 That paint job is blinding! Awesome strategy, blind the enemy, you cant fight what you cant see. Snaggle and Klaiber 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klaiber 5,036 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 That's a fantastic skin, Luftritter! Excellent work Vonrd! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
93rd Aero, R.Talbot 235 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 I was gonna say LR stood for "Loser Ride"... Zing! DeFreest Larner 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J5_Gamecock 263 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Excellent work indeed! Gaudy, perhaps... but well done! At least now we will see ya comin' !! All kidding aside, I like the red/wht/blk Imperial colors. I'm going to have to figure out how to work my J5 skins into FC as well. HotleadColdfeet 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klaiber 5,036 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Game, if you guys have squadron skins for FC, let us know. We'll add them to our consolidate downloads page: http://forum.jg1.org/topic/5560-consolidated-download-links/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J5_Gamecock 263 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Game, if you guys have squadron skins for FC, let us know. We'll add them to our consolidate downloads page: http://forum.jg1.org/topic/5560-consolidated-download-links/ Well, we have many skins in ROF, but I understand that we need to "lighten" them, (or something like that), for FC. They work, but look too dark. Our in-house skinner is no longer with us so we are going to have to have someone direct us in the How-to. When it comes to Gimp... I am just that!

Vonrd 2,128 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 If you can link me the skins I would be happy to convert them for y'all (lighten and color correct). Klaiber, Snaggle and HotleadColdfeet 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HotleadColdfeet 1,224 Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Sweet ride! That cowl art looks menacing, like it wants to eat a Camel for breakfast! I got my first personal skins in ROF (courtesy of Butzzell - thanks man!) and it’s a great feeling to strap yourself into your plane and think “this one’s mine.†I love how our squad works together to support each other like this! We truly are better together. US103_Tobin 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AngryGoat 195 Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Vonrd I couldn't be happier flying around in my dr1. I agree with Hotlead that there's nothing like slipping into an aircraft that screams your own... and with all of us sitting on the flight line with our personalized skins, we truly are a flying circus of murderous beauty HotleadColdfeet, US103_Tobin and Vonrd 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
