There will be some generics for the various theatres in some of the skinpacks.

Each pack is amazing, Armin- but I was very anxious to see your Winter/Eastern Front machines in particular...this first pack is beautiful! I love the realistic levels of white overspray- which varies from a/c to a/c, mixed with the individual weathering & stenciling- you really make each 52 their own particular bird. In a catalog of so many skins for the same aircraft- the level of attention given to each specific machine comes through- and that is a great credit to you. Many thanks for your efforts- each day I look forward to seeing what's next in your series!!

Thanks Greg! Guys like you are one of the reasons keeping me skinning.
Here's another one soon to come , right from the 'downfall of the reich' :

BTW the scene isn't complete fantasy - during the last of the berlin battle aircraft of II./TG3 landed on a hastily prepared
landing strip, the street in the tiergarten between the brandenburg gate and the victory memorial.
Some pilots failed when i. e. touching trees but one is recorded to land and take off successfully in all that chaos.

Due to the excellent possibilities (maps, objects) in the modded game these screenshots could be created. Thanks to all modders. Don't ask how long it took to place all these objects...

The detail in these screenies is superb! I particularly like the first shot with the plane silloueted by the fires below, it may not show off your skins markings but its a stunning image. Many thanks for sharing these.

Wingco.

Could the event in these screenies perhaps depict the unlucky Kriegsmarine soldiers being sent and delivered to the crumbling Reich Capital, as so many other of the absolutely mad and last attempts to bring reinforcements, until Wenck's so called "Army" would arrive to "save" Berlin and the F?hrer in the final days?

Damn, those screenies are great Armin! I won't ask how long it took it set up that scene

The II./TG3 was eventually tasked with carrying a 'F?hrerschutzbataillon' , in fact 30 men chosen from SS and Kriegsmarine troops, to the Reichskanzlei - for exclusive protection of Hitler himself. It isn't really known if these men ever reached the Reichskanzlei. As Berlin-Gatow airfield was lost to the Russians a provisional landing strip was hastily prepared on the so called 'East-West axe', a part of the Charlottenburger Stra?e running trough the Tiergarten between Brandenburger Gate and the Victory column.
There even were landing lights and the trees along the strip were felled for widening the landing strip.
Hanna Reitsch landed on the 26th april as one of the first with a Fi156 to visit her F?hrer in the Reichskanzlei. She managed to take off two days later in an Ar96.
For larger airplanes it of course was much more difficult to land between the tall trees, under heavy smoke, fires, enemy fire and by night. Incoming by flying over the Brandenburger Gate with no chance to make a touch and go landing if necessary - because of the Victory column and large tiergarten trees at the end of the strip.
However in the night of 26th april Uffz. Ernst Martin of 7./TG3 with his Ju52 coded 4V+GR was the first to land there and failed by hitting some trees and crashed.
In the following night Ofw Gerhard B?hm of II./TG3 managed to take down and take off with his Ju52 successfully. He most likely was the only one, others aborted landing under these conditions and returned to base.
The II./TG3 was ordered then to fly by day as night missions to the landing strip were considered impossible. The commander of II./TG3 protested vehemently argueing the aircraft would be excellent targets for the russian flak and the missions considered suicidable. The only reason for aborting the mission was developing thick fog in the Tiergarten area.
II./TG3 flew night missions to the east-west axe by dropping medical materials and equipment until 30th april 1945, then the unit was pulled back before Berlin fell completely to the Red Army.

Thank you very much for this information Armin!

I was under impression, little if any information of these Ju's was available - at least it has been out of my "reach". Going to have to copy paste your information and save it

I have detailed information about miss Reitsch's and von Greim's adventurous odyssey to the F?hrerbunker, from several books I think.
The description of her stay at the bunker, however interesting the sight is from a historical point of view, to me was not pleasant reading. It gave a nightmarish and claustrophobic feeling of a mad house where the patient's had taken over from the medical staff

I wish I had enough vocabulary to comment all these magnificient skins and jaw dropping screenies ...!!

yeah, the scenario(s) on the screenies is also looking very good
