Hehe....funny topic from a prolific painter who's painted a few planes in his day. 🙂

Fscabral is a fantastic painter and seems to paint liveries I just gravitate to, hehe.   I highly encourage you guys to check out his paints here:  https://flightsim.to/profile/Fscabral/uploads

This one is amazing!  Now...I never really liked this Delta livery, since it overwrote my beloved Delta Widget...but he did it so well, and I have many memories flying on this livery.

Just look at all the detail...the dirt, great!  The off-color nose, and the nacelle covers...just epic.  And the custom wing textures...superb.   

And the fantastic metallic Western....

 

And the absolutely stunning LH old livery....LOVE this livery!

Give his paints a look.....and I hope I see you guys flying them soon. 🙂 

 

 

Three beauties !! .

Very gentleman-like post on your part. And that Western metallic paint is fantastic.

Thanks John.  I just call 'em like I see 'em.  The guy is great painter and nice person!  We've chatted back and forth on several topics...and shocker....every one is about aviation, but not all about painting! 🙂  Turns out we are kindred spirits, about the same age, and have similar, warm stories of our childhood passion about aviation.

And I'm actually flying a little more than I'm painting for the 1st time in years with the painting community stepping up like it has.  Flying mostly his paints...a few of mine, and if you want some of the best SWA paints for MSFS (and xPlane)...just get this guys paints:

cheers 😉

Thank you so much for this warm post Steve. You makes me feel very red now! 🤪hahaha

...well, been an out lander here (disappearing and appearing time by time..i mean after years) 😂😂 ...makes me like a ghost, so i shouldn't be very worry about getting too red 😋

I remember my first liveries after KBT released their L-188, you can still find it here (but with my old lost account here).

Thank you for your support again Steve!    ...and thank you Pmplayer, John F, Johnbow72 and Ryanbatc.

Hehe....Welcome back!

I just thought your excellent work needed some exposure other than flightsim.to...where the main focus of simmers is to grab a paint and run...almost never stopping to thank a painter for his/her work.   That is the nature of things for sure, and we always enjoy a reply there when a downloader posts one.

Anyway....easy to post pics here and showcase your paints...I've been enjoying them tremendously and wanted to let the simmers here know about them if they somehow missed them over there. 🙂 

Can't wait for more in the future.

...🙂...True, Steve, everything is on a fast lane...these days.... (Excuse me for being a bit un-related to the point, but I happened to be in the local Coffee place in the morning...I was the only one walking inside to pick up the coffee from a person...after exchange of Hello and Thanks...Meanwhile, I must have spotted at least 4-5 folks dashing in, twisting the cup on the pick-up counter to verify their name....and then dash out...all pre-ordered on a machine and therefore absolutely no need for any exchange of pleasantries...🙂...)

Agree, in our SIM world, the repainters are the unsung heroes...🙂.... but always ahead of the flyers...

First of all, wonderful looking trio of repaints above....and the Western Metal is a perennial favorite...!

[BTW, it's so coincidental you've mentioned FS KBT L-188...For my post on Braniff this week...I was indeed looking for L-188 repaints (in the Braniff color), you've a great set of (historic) L-188 repaints...Anyway, I finally decided to include the (Braniff) DC-3/L-049 examples instead, in my post....]

Thanks for these marvelous 737 (and other) contributions...!!

Thanks again Steve!  ...and i was just laughing looking at my avatar here...adding an electric guitar to my beloved visitors that time to time comes asking for food!

About the world around.....Crazy relativity laws!...always working in mysterious ways ! 😂

Thank you P-7878, glad you enjoy my artwork and appreciate your comment. :)    ...and yes, the might L-188!!! Those engines whistling in the air... good times i must say!

Steve, your paints are always good, not sure about that dirty Delta since I like my birds clean!

That's the great thing about flightsim and a bunch of different painters making paints....you get just about enough variety to satisfy everyone. 🙂   I like them both ways...and @fscabral did such a good job on the weathering.....not an easy task to get just right.
