Ok, Yellabird will fly again Nothing like the colors yellow and black to properly represent a bush plane.....will be very worn, inside and out, and guaranteed to be as ugly as the third branch on the ugly tree........
For your viewing pleasures, I present N23383 "Yellabird"
I will get this packaged up very soon.....
Available now on Dropbox
(Released) Yellabird N23383

Re: Repaint direction?
I was thinking of a surplus turned bush plane route with faded military markings.

Re: Repaint direction?
I was thinking about that too. But have no idea to do that. Will need to experiment with that.

Re: Repaint direction?
Try putting your markings in subdued colors on the spec layer...and very faint on the t layer

Re: Repaint direction?
I am still contemplating which markings to use. I had some faint Luftwaffe markings on the fuselage.

Re: Repaint direction?
A little shading to do, but it's starting to look real nasty............
Opinions anyone?

Re: Repaint direction?
It looks brilliant. I admire your tenacity and eye for detail. I still got a lot to learn.

Re: Repaint direction?
Thanks ebo, you're painting is top notch, don't sell yourself short. My painting evolves around the experimentation...the artist has always been there, but only on a classic hand drawn basis. The digital platform is new for me, so it's a constant learning experiment to put what I visualize into digital media.
Now to finalize this interior and put together something for the outside...
Any ideas....

Re: Repaint direction?
Thanks Scott for your kind words.
That interior looks spot on. Love the torn carpet. Your side panels also look great, which showed what was missing on my interior. The side panels are still too clean!
How did you kill the shine on the seats and side panels? Mine still look very like plastic and not canvas.
Appreciate your help on this one.

Re: Repaint direction?
ebo did a little spec experimentation, and was kind enough to divulge, so I took his figures and took another look at mine....still kept some reflection, but a much more flat coloring to the material on the seat and side panels.....here is what I came up with.....
No competition going lol, just friendly resource and information exchange
