A page or two back, I explain how to use layers and "historical 3 View Drawings" to quickly and easily make exact replications of historical skins by using them as transparent layers and tracing over them. I even explained the best places to find source materials for proper colours and these three view examples.

I'd make a few right now for you guys to judge, all you'd have to do is post some examples of the skins you would like, but like I said before, I'm at a seminar for the next 6 days and I doubt that my colleagues would appreciate me downloading Photoshop and working on planes while we're supposed to be learning about LSIL and HPV.

Maybe if there is interest I could be persuaded to make a youtube tutorial that shows you how to make historical skins, adding custom weathers, and even unique panel lines to represent repair work or field mods.
If anyone was interested,
