War Thunder Bell P-400 Airacobra Skins

[Dan_RAFBC]

 

I guess this could technically class as my first Ready For Inspection! Over the past few months I've been working on creating skins for the P-400 in the video game War Thunder. It's been a long journey learning as much about the aircraft and its history as I have about digital texture creation and the skills required. I don't class myself as a professional at this but I do hope that you enjoy the result of many hours of work. The P-400 in War Thunder isn't the best in terms of being an accurate 3D model but it's all I have to work with.

 

My plan is to keep this thread up to date with all the skins that I create for the Model 14 family and this initial post will contain all those skins inside spoilers to try and keep things tidy. On opening the spoilers you will find a profile view, screenshot and link to download and read about each skin.
