They look good David, nice work.

It will be great if you can fill in any more gaps.
But if you think you can improve on any of the existing paint jobs, just go for it.

Cheers

I am a little late to this thread, but I have an interest in the airlines of Hawaii. Aloha was an early US customer and bought two, delivered in 1966 followed by a third in 1967 that was exhibited at the Paris Airshow. BAC's test pilot "Willy" Williamson so enjoyed working with Aloha that he left to become Director of Flight at Aloha. Unfortunately in 1967 the 1-11s were traded for 737s to compete against Hawaiian Airline's much larger (and more powerful) DC-9-30s.

I have never seen an Aloha repaint for this aircraft. I don't know if there is any interest in doing a livery for Aloha as it is rather simple. The only online photos I've seen are these:

The large 284 on the nose is the Paris airshow number
