Blending Green to Black

[Dickert]

Just pasted one on those Blended texture maps to the skin layer of my paint kit to see what happens.  Played with the colorize options and contrast options.  Could have easily make this any color of the rainbow in about 3 seconds.  Think I should add a layer for the call letters.  Standby.

It's a nice repaint idea but I think these colors do not suit the shapes of that bird so well, especially the black part which tends to mask the volumes.

Looks like a real fun bird however. I have recently bought the BD-5 microjet/prop from IRIS and I love it much more than I expected.

I don't like your refuel probe. Couldn't you model an articulated one that hides in the body, like the F-18 or F-14 ?

Hi Daube
Thanks for the comments, but I don

It's simple: when your aircraft has a bright color like white for example, the shapes, the volumes, the various lines of the aircraft body are easy to see.
With a dark or flashy color, these are less visible.
To my eyes, your plane looks much better in white

Speaking of "easy to see" ...
