Request your opinion on my C185 repaint

Featured Replies

Hello Gents,I'm wrapping up the finishing touches on my Cessn 185 and I need your help with the N numbers. First, does anyone know a source for the font normally used on most GA planes? It's those block letters with the corners cut off but it's not something that people use to type documents with...Secondly, I tried to use a combination of colors on mine to make them stand out against the blue and red background. For the upper numbers, I used a charcoal grey with black outline and then a white set of numbers and black outline to "shadow" beneath the dark font.Can you guys suggest a better color combination that would stand out against the blue and red?C185pic2.jpgC185pic1.jpgAs you can see, the black letters kind of blend too much on their left sides with the dark blue of the fuselage. :(

I use amarillo/SAF I downloaded from sim outhouse, then rastorixe the text layor and then skew it 30 degrees to the rear of the plane.2009-9-20_19-36-31-531.jpg
