Prime Air reboot

Recommended Posts

So now that I have my improved template for the 74 I decided its time to revisit my Prime Air repaint.  Its about time anyways.  There are planes with winglets flying now so I have an idea of what Amazon was planning for the winglets.  So here we go with a couple shots I put together this morning.  Any inputs?

List of changes:

Weathering (Lots and lots and lots of it)

Logo is bigger

Tail number has been changed to reflect a Prime number.  I have plans for tail numbers for the BCF and the -8 I'll be doing.

There is an alignment issue that needs to be addressed because of the A/C inlet scoops.

Yea I have one should be done.  I’ll look at it tomorrow and upload it if it’s finished.  Sorry got side tracked with a whole slew of other ones.  Even have a pretty decent 737-800 painted in the Prime livery.  It’s not ready for distribution.  Still things I want todo but sometime it will be done.

Sorry for the exceedingly long delay.  I've been swamped at home and other projects and what free time I have I just quite honestly don't feel like sitting in front of the computer moving a mouse :biggrin:.  But I've finally uploaded the second version of the Prime Air 747.  Heres some screens

Next project up right now is this 737-800BCF.  Some more weathering needed to make it seem like a more legitimate Freighter.  But it should open the doors for some differing repaints such as DHL etc.  Once I'm done if someone else wants the freighter template I'll be more than willing to upload or share it.  Heres what I got so far out of it.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Hi Thibo, where can we find these liverys?

All my repaints can be found here: https://library.avsim.net/search.php?CatID=root&SearchTerm=brian+thibodeaux&Sort=Added&ScanMode=0&Go=Change+View

The 737 is still a work in progress as I need to add weathering and what not before I can finalize liveries.

I gotta get motivated to do the 73.  Requires the tedious work of door seals and what not.  It's the most time consuming part but makes it that much better.

This will also happen.  But QW has a LOT of fixes to implement before I can really focus on it.  But probably the one I've been most anxious to do since I've started this little Prime repaint endeavor.

Amongst the litany of projets I got going on.  I wanted to make some headway with this one as I'm in love with the 786.  So this is what I got going right now.  Very very early stages.

Worked on it for a few hours.  Now begins the tedious stuff of doors, and resizing, registration stuff. I already think the Prime Air logo needs to be taller.  But it came together faster than I thought it would.  Maybe tomorrow I can release this and the 737 thats been sittin gon my computer.  Fingers crossed.

Tag you're it!

Both the 787 or 737 are uploaded now.  Let me know what you guys think if anything is wrong or broken.  Just waiting on the Library Gods to give it their blessing.  Was hoping by now someone would have started a VA with this paints.  I gotta tell you I'm a bit disappointed 😞

Currently in the works.  I'm not sure I'll get it done before I head out to work in a couple days.  But we will see.  Bringing this livery to the 748.
