Terri - I think you did a fine job on this repaint!

Flyboy,

Thanks, had a hard time with the horses. They still didn't turn out as sharp as I wanted. Will have figure out a way to do that.

Nicely Done Terri! I know how it is when you try to do a repaint! Mine took 12 hours to complete if all done at once. How long did yours?

Probably about the same. Part of it was finding the "little" things in Paint Shop to make things look right. The main part was trying to get the little details on the horses to look right. Pretty hard to get clean thin lines.

I know what you mean Terri! I had the same problem. Mine was Stardancer's Leasing Company Citation X, Pic Below, and I had one heck of a time in Photoshop figuring it out. But in the end, it came out like this....

P.S. - I plan on doing other real worlders later.....

Nice looking repaint! I find with the more repaints I do, the easier it becomes! I guess practice makes perfect :)

Nicely done.
Mine is my ranch logo without the words in it. Drew that up some time ago for business etc. Anyway, had to do some work on it to get it to display decent in FS9. Originally I did that logo in Photoshop but decided to give Paintshop a try this time. Seems there are different goodies in Paintshop so a bit of a change.

Looks good, Terri! :)

Great work!
I tried to keep it simple in repainting this aircraft by putting the entire fuselage on one 1024X bitmap, so it's certainly tough to get it really sharp. It does help to insure you remove the mipmaps from the final though.
Future aircraft will be spread over at least two 1024x bitmaps to insure sharp textures every time! :)

Wonderfully done, Terri!

First repaint? Don't kid me! :-eek :-eek :-lol
