April 25, 201214 yr I can remember that someone was in the middle of painting a Britannia old style livery... would it be possible to include winglets please... like below..
April 25, 201214 yr That Continental looks great! Any chance for a Southwest 600? Perhaps as tribute to the 200 and 500? Thanks guys! Jack Would the classic livery suit you? I can do one fairly quick. Chris Hicks
April 25, 201214 yr include winglets please... Why on earth when all the old Britannia 737s I remember flying on to the Med did not have winglets? I assume realism does not come into it? Rick Almeida
April 25, 201214 yr Commercial Member [southwest livery that appeared in less than a few hours] Seriously??? Can you print money, too? Kyle Rodgers
April 25, 201214 yr Seriously??? Can you print money, too? hahaha It was an old -700 repaint I never uploaded. It's straight lines along the fuse made it easy to copy over to the -600 paint kit. I still need to make a set of bump maps to bring it up to standard with the 700/800 sets. On the subject of exterior textures, v2 of the bump maps are finished, but I'm having issues with the speculars on the -800 model. The fuse_2 section looks brighter than _1 & _3 and I'm starting to think its the model and not my files. So the exterior packs will be delayed for a bit. Chris Hicks

April 25, 201214 yr Yeah, I'm due to receive a "get a life" speech from William Shatner pretty soon. Chris Hicks

Chris, I'm have a NAC -600 livery request I'm working on at the moment. Since you mentioned tinkering with the bump maps I thought I would let you know I took a few days off from specific livery work to concentrate on attacking the silver/chrome bottom look. I haven't started messing with the bump maps yet, but I am making headway on the regular texture dds files. I'm doing some creative work using the psd files. Since I'm not a fan of the worn/dirty look and paint a lot of my birds to look factory fresh, this would work out great if I can get it conquered. It is looking promising so far. White seems to be the most challenging color to deal with at times because it seems to reflect and washout markings, etc on bright sunny days. All of this could just be limited by the way FSX was built. Steve StubbsUSAF (retired)
April 25, 201214 yr Why on earth when all the old Britannia 737s I remember flying on to the Med did not have winglets? I assume realism does not come into it? Oh no i totally agree with you just i though it looked quite nice m8...
April 25, 201214 yr Oh no i totally agree with you just i though it looked quite nice m8... Ok, I see now, from an aesthetic point of view. Like you been waiting for a Britannia too. Hope somebody does both, W/L and non-W/L. Fingers crossed, eh? Uppingham? Anywhere near my old RAF base at North Luffenham? Rick Almeida
April 25, 201214 yr Oh no i totally agree with you just i though it looked quite nice m8... Good news then. After i saw your post i desided to give it a try :) Still not done yet. I'm going to release it tomorrow. And of course with and without winglets if you want :) JONAS JENSEN
April 25, 201214 yr Jonas, just one word for you------SUPERB!!. This must take the record for the fastest repaint request to hit the virtual skies. Well Done. Hats off to you. Rick Almeida
April 25, 201214 yr Well its my first paint, so nothing big. Working on my new 9Y-MBJ Is this one available yet? Thanx, Ralf Medernach
April 25, 201214 yr Good news then. After i saw your post i desided to give it a try :) Still not done yet. I'm going to release it tomorrow. And of course with and without winglets if you want :) Looks nice Jonas! I'm sure they will love both versions! Steve StubbsUSAF (retired)
