If you're a combat simulation veteran and you have design skills then this contest is made for you. In the IL-2 Sturmovik™: 1946 game folder you'll find skins for all planes available in the game (default path is /Program Files/GOG.com/IL-2 Sturmovik 1946/PaintSchemes/Skins). Your task is to create your own skin for the plane of your choice and send it to users@gog.com by Thursday, April 2 at 11:59 p.m. EDT. The best skin will be chosen by GOG.com's Design Team and the author of this masterpiece will be awarded with a free game from GOG.com's catalogue. We'll announce the lucky winner in the community update news on Saturday, April 4. You have to own the game on GOG.com to enter the contest. Good luck and don't forget to make a copy of the original skin :).
EDIT: Saturday has come and that means we have to pick a winner. And that winner is... ElPixelIlustre, with just a little bit of help from his girlfriend. ;)

Got some pretty cool ideas, I like em! Can you post those skins so I can use them in-game?
Thanks for the feedback. In the end I did one more skin (6).
Also, I can't attach the skins because they are in BMP format
EDIT: My girlfriend saw me doing this stuff and I ended up making a hello kitty skin... sigh.

I'm sure you could use something like imageshack or photobucket, maybe even convert them to a supported format (like .png) and allow us to change the format to bmp ourselves..
Very clever, here they are:
