I've seen an alarmingly awesome number of high-quality and inspiring repaints, and then I noticed what I wasn't seeing. Have any of you made custom paint aircraft with battle damage? You know, black soot from an engine fire, bullet holes, scratched paint, dents. Let's see them if you have!

I think that, for the most part, the ground crew wouldn't want to put an aircraft back in the air with battle damage. But I've seen a few repaints with paint jobs that show bare metal showing through. Anyone try to show winter white wearing off, to represent Eastern Front paint jobs?
Those who don't remember their history are bound to do something or other...
You could also swap out a damaged plane model when yours get damaged in battle. Start out with a clean one and have it take on marks as it goes through the fight.
Each 3 hit plane should be having 2 (or even 3?) damaged exchange models: one for each level of damage. #1 is lightly damaged, #2 crippled - and the optional #3 is destroyed.

Oh, for that, I'm going to have to have a lot more aircraft!
