Custom Paint Schemes

**TWC_Padre** · Feb-03-2019, 02:37

Hey Guys

I've just started working at "pimping my ride," and was wondering if someone out there may know of a direction I might go, to find the information I'm looking for. I'm looking for a "template" or an "overlay" that clearly defines the aircraft parts, of the various Skin files in COD's folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover Blitz\PaintSchemes\Skins folder.

I'm going to try to attempt to develop my own, but when I watched a video on how to customize Skins, the fellow said that there is a place "somewhere out there" that someone has already done this.

Any advise or direction will be greatly appreciated, as always

Hi Padre
Here are My fully Layered Cliffs of Dover Templates which
include Paint, Lines & Rivets,Internal Elements [some 3D], Weathered & Markings etc.
They should be fully compatible with Photoshop and Gimp.
You will need Winrar[Free] or WinZip to extract these files.
Fell free to use as you wish and any acknowledgement would be appreciated.
Regards
Keith

Hello Keith,

Thanks for sharing these templates, you are helping make the game more excellent!

I used your template and GIMP to make the blue Hurricane below, dreaming of hunting over warmer waters...

Cheers!
