Title: A-26B Invader Skins, Korea PART 2
Post by: ecf111 on May 16, 2018, 09:50:53 PM
A-26B skins for Docholiday's Invader, Korean Theatre, Part 2. 3mb 24bit skins, feel free to downsize if you prefer the smaller 1mb. Skins are separated by Group/Squadron, the folder name in Paintschemes/skins is A-26B. Thanks to Texx for the original base template. Updated black blank included, overwrite if you have Part 1.

Part 2 here contains skins painted in black, after Invader operations switched to mainly working at night.

I tried to skin actual aircraft and serial numbers the best I could, but some liberties were taken as nose art couldn't be matched with serial numbers, or very few pictures were available of the 17th BG squadrons. Inaccurate numbers are at least from the Invader pool and appear as they would. The 13th BS has quite an extensive history and photos online and were easier to research.

Weathering varies from fresh paint to heavy use.

skins:
6 skins for the 3rd BG/13th BS- 'Grim Reapers'
nose art: 'The 7th Chadwick', 'Miss Mi-Nookie', 'Little Prankster','My Mary Lou','Lady', and a 'sharkmouth'.
3 skins for the 3rd BG/8th BS - 'Liberty Eagles'
nose art: 'Martha Ann'
3 skins for the 3rd BG/90th BS - 'Pair a Dice'
3 skins for the 17thBG/95thBS- 'Kicking Mules'
nose art from a plastic model pic, no idea if it was real.
4 skins for the 17th BG/34thBS- 'Thunderbirds'
nose art: 'High Roller', I just used a B-24 Liberator pic for the art.

US black generic

Enjoy!
