[center]Create a Simviation Livery!!



[size=14][color=#0000ff]
After seeing so many of our talented SimV members take up the challenge of repainting, we thought what better way to show off those talents and skills, than by running a SimV Livery Contest.

This will be the second installment of this contest, the first being held back in 2007,

Time to get those paint brushes flowing SimV, can't wait to see what you come up with. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Feel free to post WiP shots or keep your cards close to your chest. Good Luck. :)

Thanks. I thought about a lower bare metal half, but don't really know how how to approach it. I do know about Alpha channels and the like but I think the blue should be alright, more appropriate to SimV. :)

I like what you've done with the layout, interesting choice of aircraft too. The bright colours should help it stand out at airports. ;)

Is anybody else working on their SimV Livery?

Wow, where is everyone that posted before? There are some really nice paints so far and I know there are even more great ones that haven't been posted yet. I wish I could do repaints.  :D

I've decided that I've gone long enough without knowing how to repaint, so here is my first attempt at it:

Coming along very nicely Christian, can't wait to see the final product. :)

I think we need to extend the deadline? :-/

I'd appreciate a deadline extension.
This week is really busy for me while the next one is much calmer.

How does an extra month sound?

So how do we submit our entries? Do we just post pics of the livery?

Yes, post a general shot of the livery in this thread. Try to show off most of the paint, if possible. i.e side-view shot or front 3/4 view. ;)

I decided to scrap that 747 repaint and restart using Project Airbus's A319.

Here is my entry:
