A Lockheed "Rounder"

The RNZAF received 4 Harpoons 4 months before the Pacific war ended. NZ4701, NZ4702, NZ4703 and NZ4704 are represented here and will be uploaded soon. There were only 4 Harpoons so I thought why not do them all...so I repainted them all.

NZ4702

NZ4701

NZ4703

And lastly NZ4704 - for some reason only 4 images are allowed in each upload, so I had to put number 5 screenshot here.

Beautiful work, Mark. Can't wait to see them flying in my Amsterdam flat.

Cheers,
Maarten

Thank you Mark; well done Sir.

One of the guys brought to my attention that I had the wrong readme file in the Panair download. I've corrected the problem and the updated file is now in the library.

Sorry, my bad.

The shipping department has been properly chastised.

Well done Mark

I'll be adding those to the fleet

Thanks Pete!
I'm having some trouble uploading.
Internet connection seems to be a problem at the moment. I'll try again tomorrow.

Has anyone done a US Navy repaint such as this? (in this shade of blue) Thanks....

***Willy*** · October 25th, 2015, 10:47

Which Navy?

There's a few out there. I've got a tri-color camo one that I need to upload but it's on my Flight Sim comp and I'm away from home for an indefinite time. There's also an Attu Warrior and some solid dark blue post war paints.

**mrogers** · October 25th, 2015, 12:17

The upload's complete - go get 'em!
In the Warbirds library now, look for it under fs2004 military skins, file name RNZAF Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon repaints.zip

Edit: the repaint package now includes the fix - "RNZAF Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon repaints_with_fix.zip" so now all is in one zip file.

Oops! I spotted a texture glitch on NZ4701's nose! Here's the corrected texture; please copy and allow to overwrite when prompted
I also spotted the following text in the aircraft CFG; there was a typo mistake, NZ4702 which should be NZ4703, see below, so if you're able to do so, please adjust it...

Ventura has her first dress... and off to the ball!

**mrogers** · October 26th, 2015, 09:45

Lovely, I can't wait.

**expat** · October 26th, 2015, 13:06

Ventura looks wonderful!

Another repaint, this one is"Black 24" of VPB139, Attu 1945. In the photo reference of Black 24 it's external fuel tanks were bare metal so I replicated them here. Fairly easy one to repaint. Soon will be uploaded.
