...on the Dreamwings Embraer ERJ-170 (VH-ZHA) in FSX. Virgin Blue will be recieving 3 170's and 11 190's to complement its exisisting 737's on its domestic routes around Australia.











Thanks for looking, I hope you liked my repaint and comments will be much appreciated!

Cheers

Good work! Well done!

Great job! Thanks for the effort! Very cool but are they really this red?

yes they are... trust me i seen that plane like 500 times at the airport

You've seen Virgin Blue Embraer 170s in Australia when they haven't even left Brazil yet?  :-? And I have seen Virgin Blue in upwards of 100 000 times - they only grace almost every gate in the domestic section.  ;D  ;)

I like your repaint Mab. However, in a shocking contrast to Harold's comment - is it red enough? I think that paint should be a much deeper fiery red. The text is a bit too small for the fuselage - it should stretch back to the 14th window, and there should be no Brazillian flag at all. And the blue stripe on the tail should be JUST above the rear door line.

Sorry for the critique mate, otherwise your E-170 is fine.

Thanks guys for the comments!

Thankyou An-225, I will take your advice and fine tune this paint!

I love it Mitch! your a very experianced painter I would love to download that! But you should make more metallic red

Actually, the plane is not metallic. I have several photos of a Virgin Blue 737-800 (up CLOSE) but it is a solid fiery (use the US Coast Guard HH-65 Dauphin/Dolphin as an example) red, not metallic.

Well its not matte is it it is  a shiny red not a flat red like in the pictures up above.

The term is "gloss". The only way to simulate it is to add an alpha channel. Also known as "reflection".
