Hi Simmers,As you are all aware Melvin Rafi has released a GMAX'ed B747-400 aircraft and again I could not resist tinkering.http://www.gjsmith.com/images/B747-Blank-2.jpgAs you can see from the above I have now created a set of master blanks created from tinkering with one of his excellent Paint Kits so that I can have some fun repainting her in various liveries.See some extra screen shots of the Shiny Master Blank textures at:http://www.gjsmith.com/textures/b747-400.htmI have written to Melvin requesting his permission to create and release liveries for his aircraft - as soon as I receive permission then I will start accepting requests and posting them. However, if he declines - then I will of course cease and desist tinkering with his aircraft textures. :-)Happy simming to you allGarry J.

Glad to here you are going to be working on this new aircraft, I love your work!!You repainting the 747's shouldn't be too much of a problem considering people have already uploaded repaints.Shane

Thanks Shane for your complements. Looking forward to pumping out a "few" for this classic lady of the sky. Am working on an imaginary DHL livery at the moment and have several others in the mill already.I hope your right about the repaint potential but I like to wait until I receive permission from the designer as it is simple courtesy to do so.Regards Garry J.
