Auto Credit Based on MisterMasada's Lautern Skyly J2 Redux
See predecessor for most of the fluff, I decided that I HAD to make this variant because of this [photo](http://img07.deviantart.net/d6a9/i/2015/129/f/9/jaaf_skyly_j2v2_photo_4_by_brandzai-d8spfxu.jpg) of this fellow's Skyly J2 model, I just really like how it looks. My only complaint about my recreation is that I can't get the right shade of green, other than that I'm pretty proud, hope you enjoy (and don't mind that I made another variant of a plane). ALSO, it's for the WWII alt-history RP, kinda like a Japanese import plane.

@points @Macer23T Thanks.
@MisterMasada enter specific negative values to the 3 variables
@guyrot2010 Ah, thanks for the info. And that transparent bit is really interesting, how do you go about that?
@MisterMasada SimplePlanes uses standart hex coloring in their xml files, and it's called ''materials'' for some reasons. Wierd decision in my opinion, but
I'm not going to argue with what works...
Edit: they also use 3 extra variables (''did i spell it ok?'') to control the shiny-ness of the color.
I also learned how to make a metarial see-trough like cockpits irl, it's actually really cool :D
@gavin1234 @General360 @Feanor @jdulmer @Supercraft888 @Brields95 @salisbey @guyrot2010 I can't believe I forgot to say thanks, wow... that said, thanks for the fake internet points, they help!
@guyrot2010 Nah, not XML editing, specifically the color bit, see, I haven't actually taken the time to look at/for the color section of the XML files, and kind of can't be asked to at this very moment, and I don't know how SP codes their colors, like, if it uses standard hex codes or what.
@MisterMasada explenation for what?
Xml modding?
@guyrot2010 Sure, if you could include a short explanation as well that'd be great.
@MisterMasada I know how to, and i can make it if you want :)
@guyrot2010 I can't quite recreate that in Simple Planes' color selection, if I knew how to do custom color via XML I would
@MisterMasada how about the "rare" and "extinct" choice of olive green?
@guyrot2010 I think it needs a bit more green
@MisterMasada it looks somewhat like a ki-43's factory undersurface color. Think that's the one?
@guyrot2010 Hopefully this link works, it didn't work when I put it in the description.
This is what the plane's colors are based off of
@MisterMasada If you can send me a pictue of the green you want to paint the plane with, I'm pretty sure i can paint it that color.
Edit: if you don't know the spesific color, press here to see all the camoflauge colors the japanese used during WW2
This is fantasic plane!
