These include my first try at repainting and some other tries.

This is my first repaint attempt. I didn't like it cuz the wheel pants wound making it look like a circus clown might be the pilot. It's based on the Cessna 152 by Bennett Gray.

Another view of the C152.

This was an attempt at the DC4 used in the Barjac John Wayne movie "The High And The Mighty" it's based on the DC4 by Brian Horsay.

This is a repaint of the default DC3. it's one of 6 belonging to a fictional airline named after a brother. Each of the other aircaft is named after my mom, sister, wife and 3 nieces. This one is 'Jackie' - my niece and God-daughter.

And finaly this is Mike Stones 757-200. It's in the texture of "Presidente Juarez" aircraft 'TP-01' which is the Mexican's version of Air Force One.

Thanks for taking the time to look.

Better than anything I can do... whiwh is nothing when it comes to repaints!  ;D

The big birds look nice, but some constructive critisism on the first one? IMHO the colours on the Cessna are to bright and flat... its almost like they're to even or something... look at the white/grey parts on the plane... That's much more realistic. I couldn't do better however...  ;)

Hey thanks for the comments Omag and Joker. Much appreciated.

Yeah, you're right on about the colors on the Cessna. I didn't take into account the 'warping' of the texture either. I'll get to it one of these days. Its a fun plane to fly though. I like using it to check out the scenery around airports. Flys nice and slow. ;)

Nice repaints.


But kinda transparent on the 152's tail in your second shot. You can see the mountians through the tail.

I like the DC-3 the best. Excellent work.

Thanks Papa. Yeah I blew out the alpha channel. It would take about 2 minutes to fix but I'm lazy. ;D
