PMDG 737 Beta Tester here....look what I've been hoarding!

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,
It's been a long, hard, enjoyable, frustrating (for everyone...Devs, testers, patiently waiting simmers, hehe), rewarding, and incredible experience beta testing this phenominal aircraft!

I have bitten a hole clean thru my bottom lip watching all the speculative posts in many forums, knowing answers to questions you guys had but had to remain in the cone of silence.....until toady!

You guys know me as a long-time contributor of freeware paints, and I'm pleased to announce that I will continue that tradition with the release of this epic aircraft.

I plan to bring over all my previous paints for the 737-700, in addition to a few that I've created by request by members of the beta team.

Before I paste in the pic of all the paints I'm converting, let me show you a few of what you've all been waiting for (all have been recreated and depict the latest beta build of the aircraft.)

Speaking of disclaimers:
DISCLAIMER: All screens are of the product in its latest beta iteration, some things shown may change before release.

I wanted to make my very 1st public screen one that hits several cools things that max out Steve's geek meter. 🙂

I echo Rob's excitement about the DD Renton scenery.  Being a "virtual" painter, I see the completion of my "virtual paint hangar" come to life in this scenery! 
Here is my completed Germania paint getting ready to roll out of the Renton Paint Hangar. 🙂 
The lighting and atmospherics in MSFS, the scenery and the plane are something to behold in this pic.  Look at the lights on the paint scaffolds reflecting off the plane...just awesome!

And who can guess the next paint I'm working on?

This is the 1st repaint from scratch I did for a fellow beta tester.  This is a new-ish airline in South America.  I like it.   Its an odd livery from a painter's standpoint because the winglets when looking from the left are blue and looking from the right, orange.

Guys, unfortunately I'm on a laptop traveling this week (figures)...and converting these screens to the latest beta build has been a challenge to say the least.  But regardless, I'll do the best I can getting you guys some more screens as even with a small screen, this palne is so photogenitc!  
In addition, the beta team is still extremely busy testing and trying to get her done for you guys, so I know that any lack of screens or communication in the near future won't be met with "OMG why are they not posting screens and answering every detailed question we ask??  I want my screens and answeres....and I want them NOW! LOL.  
Honestly, I think what you guys REALLY want is the plane...so let us focus on making that happen....deal?

 

Here are a few more randoms...

Superb livery renditions.

Will you also be doing some paints for the 800, when it is released?
