Unashamed Advert - another Dove

Post by briwith »

Hi All,

I'm no aircraft painter but I couldn't resist trying DP's Dove in Newark Air Museum colours. She's really Series 1B G-AHRI, so I hope you won't mind my adapting the Series 5/6.

Available soon.

:smt017 What?

It looks great Brian. Nowt wrong with that

Seriously there is nothing wrong with the way that's comming on.

And it's a good choice of subject because it is a familiar livery but at the same time a little bit different.

Why not knock out a full RAE while you're about it.

Very nice :smt023

Hi Garry,

Thanks for the kind words.

Unfortunately the nose colours are wrong at the moment and I can't get them sorted. This aircraft painting lark is a bit too much like masochism for me :smile: :smile:

Re the RAE aircraft - I think they are all Devons with the later, more bulbous, engine cowlings so I don't think I could get away with using any of the present models. :sad:

ATB,

Brian

Hi Brian,

Have d/l it this morning and it looks fine to me. :thumbsup:

Don't know why you were worried - I couldn't get anywhere near that.

Hi All,

Thanks for the encouraging comments :smile:

I've done a bit of tidying-up and updated the textures to the Version 2 model. Uploaded this am (NAM104U.zip) so should be available as above soon.

Regards,

Brian
