Hi All,
After seeing some of your awesome screenshot posts, I'm tempted share some of mine here.
However, my screens are probably not "wallpaper" worthy. I'm not artistic and I'm not a fan of photoshopping my screens.
Heck, some of them still have HUD or even minimap turned on.
My screenshots are all about capturing the magic moments, and maybe showing the subject's modders/skinners some appreciation.
Anyway, here's perhaps my first ever screenshot of the game:
The year was 2006, shortly after getting Pacific Fighters, I was pissed that the Royal Navy did not get any torpedo bomber of its own, and the Avenger wasn't flyable back then. I stumbled upon a hack skin for IL-2T as Fairey Fulmar, and an idea was born: What if I pretend this is some kind of RN torpedo bomber, and land it on HMS Illustrious WITHOUT A HOOK?
After thousands of crashes and falling off the deck, I finally managed to do so, just once!
Fast forward to 10 years later, and we now have this beauty:
Thanks to all modders/skinners involved
Glibble
(p.s. Edited last pic - Sorry I meant to show a Barracuda instead of a Firefly, damn this brain fog of mine!)
(Don't get me wrong, I love the Firefly just as much)
