    Dunkirk Spitfires - Fortis Flight

    With Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk heading our way very soon, I thought I'd try to recreate the three Spitfires featured. The flight of three are given the call-sign 'Fortis' in the film.

    Bear in mind I'm new to skinning, so I used one of IC Maddox's stock blank skins and modified it quite a bit, and I think it came out okay.

    • Blank Skin with squadron code but no serial number
    • R9649 - Fortis 1
    • R9632 - Fortis 2
    • R9612 - Fortis 3

    The removal of the gun patches was an interesting affair, as was painting on the finflash by measuring pixels, but I think they both came out a treat. Just drop the schemes into your Spitfire skin folders!

    Saw the film today, thanks for these

    Fortis Leader was played by Michael Caine, by the way.

    I'm pretty sure Caine was the voice of the ground controller not the flight leader.

    I just got back from watching it a second time, and Collins (Fortis 2) addresses Michael Caine's character as Fortis Leader.

    Hi Lythronax
    Welcome aboard Buddy.
    Wow..Great skin Mate especially as you are new to skinning and that you were using the stock blank skins
    which have no panel lines or any points of reference and doing it by measuring Pixels takes real patience and dedication.
    I was in the same boat as you when I started Skinning CloD so decided to make my own layered Templates to make life a lot easier
    so if you are interested here they are.
    Based on this as a first attempt I think we are going to see some nice work from you in the future.
    Keep skinning Buddy
    Regards
    Keith
