Yak-1B skins

[MDzmitry]

Since this topic didn't exist before, I'm going to create one myself. 

But I'll start it not with a skin link, but instead with a request: could someone take the basic Yak-1B camo and make a 3rd IAK one?

The "winged star" decal is already present on an in-game Yak-9T skin, and the number can be left out to be customizable. All that's needed really is to paint the top of the fin white and put the star where it's needed. 

Thanks in advance and feel free to use this topic for posting any other Yak-1B skins if you have any.

Here, I whipped up two generic 3 IAK schemes. One from 15 IAP with just the white fin cap and the other from 43 IAP with the a red and white spinner in addition to the white fin cap.

New versions available below.

Why is the hammer and sickle symbolism on your skins not correctly mirrored?

You should ask that to the profile artist...

Likely that they only made one stencil and used it on both sides of their aircraft

Вероятно, они изготовили только один трафарет и использовали его на обеих сторонах своего самолета.

Нет.

@Devil5O5 could I also ask you for a later 43 IAP skin?

White tail top, tail number position having a dark-grey background, and a white-winged red Star with an outline. Might be a bit much to ask, but I think it'd be a nice option for later scenarios (even if flown outside of the 3rd Belarusian front, i.e. 1944 Odessa/Leningrad)
