A few more aircraft for the Around the World.

Fiji, Island Hoppers Pacific Aerospace P-750XSTOL
[ img ]

Finland, Scanwings Beechcraft C90GTx King Air
[ img ]

France, Pepsi (Air France) Concorde. This was a crazy Marketing Stunt that Pepsi did in 1996. The blue paint caused higher than normal air friction about Mach 1.7, and thus the aircraft was limited to only 20 minutes at Mach 2.02 at a time.

I also updated the template for the Concorde, correcting some inaccuracies and changing the shading a bit.

Hi!
It's perhaps fault of the base drawing, but the shading looks bit dated. Also, something strange happened to the exhaust and the black line that separated engine cowling from the rest of the fuselage was black for a reason. ;)
And some colors on the panel lines extend much further than on the base surface (for example in some places panel lines are green where everything around them is brown and vice versa).
It would be also nice if You had sorted the issue of anti-aliasing on the text part ( http://shipbucket.com/styleguide#61 ).

Thanks for the advice. I made some changes and updated the drawing.

Nice work on the Concorde blank.
The round the world series is interesting as ever!

Love the Seasprite!
Thanks! Quick question Darth, I know you did two seat A-7s, are you planning on doing single seaters?
There is already the single seat version on Shipbucket

I was planning to do all operators and USN squadrons, but I have no computer to do it at this moment.
If you want to, please do! enjoy it!

Nice work Orionfield, however, I believe there is a better Twin Otter drawing in the archive that you could use. Check under FD Scale - Real Designs - Air - Vietnam for the base drawing. Cheers!

Yeah, the one I used is on the older side, but it wasn't worth the effort of converting a -400 model to a -300 model to use the one you suggested. I added more shading and made some small tweaks to the template before I did the Air Guyane livery too.

While working on my next project, I found that the CRJ-100/200 was missing its forward emergency exit door, so I updated the template and fixed the panel lines to be more accurate. I removed the baggage door (since thats on the port side) and added the APU exhaust.

Another version of the F-84 was the XF-84H Thunderscreech, which was appropriately named.
