Repaint requests taken here (see inside)

[OleBoy]

With a few stipulations.


No helicopters

GA only

The scheme must a challenge to my skills.

MUST have pizazz !!!

All requests of that nature considered.

Of course a paint kit will need to be supplied ;)

[Matt Wynn]

mmmm pizzas.....oooh pizazz *clears throat* needing a challenge are you buddy? Try M.Shupes Spartan in your own personal scheme, that'll keep you busy.... :ernae:

[Brian_Gladden]

Try this one....

IF GA stands for Gross Automobile, then I would like to challenge you to paint my car. It wouldn't take long, since half of the car is rusted away. The challenge would be to get the new paint to look good surrounded by rust holes and the miles of baling wire that are holding it together. I can supply a paint kit...some sandpaper, some cans of spray paint, some newspaper and tape for masking off the windows and lights. Heck, I might even be able to supply a cold beer or two to help you keep your strength up.

No fav paint to share, but...

Besides the two original releases at PAD, I have found only one paint for the DHC-5 Buffalo at flightsim.com.... fabc115.zip ... a nice camo job in C-115 Buffalo FAB colors. Texture by Cristiano Magnani.

Kind of a shame for such a workhorse of the backcountry...peacetime and wartime.

I have always wanted Tim "Piglet" Conrad's FS9 Pilatus PC-7 painted like the Alaska State Forestry aircraft, with it's striking Yellow & Blue scheme.

Paint kit here:

Very generous of you to offer, even if this one does not interest you.

FlyBoy,

Can you find me a closer shot of the tail please? It will help me out a whole bunch so I can re-draw it easier

[Flyboy208]

Will do some research and see what I can do.

Mike :wiggle:

[OleBoy]

I managed to find a couple better shots of the tail. I'll give it try now to see what I can come up with.

[Flyboy208]

Good news. I found 4 more images, maybe the same as you, anyhow - here they are ....

That state crest on the tail is all I need to get this thing to the final stages. They look like stars. Not sure though

[cheezyflier]

what about a flamed kodiak? if you don't have the kodiak, what about the default baron?


or, if you want really challenging, how about turning mike stone's 337 into "niteflyer" from steven king?

[Naki]

Hmm love to see a NZ scheme for the FS9 Carenado 152 and 172 but Im not sure whether there is a piant kit out for either and Ill need to find a NZ scheme with pizzaz.

Alaska's flag is blue with 8 gold stars. 7 form the big dipper and the 8th, the north star. Alaska's State Flag should be easy to come up with.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Alaska

The Dept. of Forestry's moniker is an outline map of the state of Alaska, in blue, with the state flag stars upon it.

[OleBoy]

Thanks for the tip Dogknot. I appreciate it.

Thanks again Dogknot!!

Question Flyboy..

Was doing this particular repaint, on this specific aircraft meant to be a mental challenge? Has anyone else done repaints here that can confirm my madness?

No offense meant Piglet, but this paintkit is twisted.

What I think should be the same from one side of the wings to the other, or bottom to top, is completely whacked

[mustang51]

The T-6, for Alphasim, War Lock, it's black. Don't have picture.

I have clue as to repainting, so had no idea the painkit is unusual.

Very happy you are giving this repaint a try.

Mike :typing::monkies::ernae:

[OleBoy]

LOL....OK Flyboy.

The paintkit is really strange the way it's mapped to the model. I'll sort it out

[Matt Wynn]

ahh its easy i do a dry test before repainting, and hand draw a diagram onto my notepad so if top left wing is mirrored for example i write on the textures mirrored, and also note it in my notepad, saves time getting things wrong later on...

[OleBoy]

Here's a couple in-sim tests. More tweaking to do yet.

Have they repainted it? When we bought one of their baseball caps from the crew last November at Nellis AFBs Aviation Nation it looked decidedly
Royal Blue.

Any news on your repaint OleBoy?

Mike :)

[modelr]

Here's one that would be fantastic! Milton Schupe's Beech D-18 would be great for the model, except for the wingtip pods.
