Skin of the Month (conformal) February 2020 - Yak-528

Given the beautiful thread started by @Bearhedge I thought of complicate my life even more and try to make something special for this community.

ONLY for those* that will undertake this month’s training regime in the Yak-52 I’ll make a special Mudspike Themed Training skin. :slight_smile:

I’ll make a generic skin, with the automatic BORT numbering (if available) and no specific names.
This way I should manage to make the skin despite all the Real-Life™ bothers and nags.

I’ll put here some previews of what I have in mind but everyones ideas and inputs are absolutely welcome.


Ideas for the skin-Feel free to comment!

I was thinking to make the skin almost completely orange like the jumpsuits of these dummies.

with some of these symbols

And some of these

And maybe add to the helmet to look like this head?

Obviously I’ll also add the Mudspike Crazy Bomb where I find some space. :smiley:


*I’m just kidding it’ll be free for everyone to download…

TEMPORARY LIST OF NAMES TO ADD TO THE SKIN:

EDIT: please feel free to @ me to let me know if you prefer not to be on the skin or if i forgot your name.

Heck yea!

Even better! if you guys want to scan your signature, I’ll add it on the rudder of the livery!

MIND YOU : I don’t need your real signature- make one up for your Mudspike Handle!
I don’t want anyone to think I’m up to no good with digital signature and all that jazz. :smiley:
