Do not want to critic somebody's whose work I couldn't do !.
... and why are you doing it though?
Like CWMV said, there is no F model in stock game, i´ve used the E - forgive me please.
Considering the colours, what´s your source? Or is it just "a feeling"? I think that Cleas Sundin and Morten Jessen are reliable enough, i´ve taken it form Focke Wulfs over africa.
Dear Mr.Boelcke.
Far from me the idea of hurting you...
If I had only a feeling , I wouldn't have dared to post here.
I can understand that being critisized is not always funny, 40 years of modelling has learned me a lot !.
You'll notice that I used "critisized" and not "demolished".
I only trust what I see, and I am not used to say something without a proof of it. That's why I gently asked you for your sources.
I have multiple installs of Il-2 and in the UP02n install I have a P40-F mod installed from Karaya . So , you are right there is not F variant "stock" ac. So I forgive you, and please , forgive me

Sure , Mr Claes Sundin, who is a talented illustrator and researcher is a reliable source. But , even this talented autor bring some corrections to his work , from time to time .
I don't know why I shouldn't trust Mr Jessen either...
But what I consider more as a proof than illustration or rendering are three different colour pictures of Lafayette's aircrafts line up taken during the "handover" of the american aircrafts to the Lafayette unit in Alger-Maison Blanche in january 1943.There are no doubts about the colours. Sand-Dark Earth or Light Earth -Mid Stone- Dark Earth -Mid Stone. Add to that that these aircrafts were worn out and patched up with fresh colours were the "new owner " French colours were applied and you'll have a fairly good idea of what they looked like. Moreover the blue from the french cockade and flag was the american dark blue, not the french one ...
These pictures appear in a special issue of the french magazine "AVIONS" depicting 50 years of french aviation in colour .Each picture I ve been talking about is from the NASM.
RONCO did some work on the french P40 and I think he has got them right .
I repeat that I do not want to be critical about somebody's work I couldn't do myself ... I can always be critical about what I see... that's quite different !.
And if you are still not convinced these "critics" were just done to help you getting better and better. I FOR SURE DO NOT WANT TO KILL YOU .
Sorry if I hurt you .
Now , as far as I am concerned , you may paint them in pink, blue, or yellow , as long as you are happy with them ,and took pleasure out of your work , it's the most important.
