That's very nice work, Ron. And always appreciated!

Philippe and Clio Camus'(escapees from Hollande's taxes?) G-BTBJ, was built in 1952.

 

  Until 1991 it was N4461C when it became F-AZRE and in 2006 it came to live in Angleterre. I don't know where she is based because there are photos of her all over the place! The old lady certainly gets around!

 

  The real one doesn't have wheel fairings but if she did I like to think they would look like the ones I've provided.

 

This is she:

 

 

Pristine eh?

 

My take.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sorry, I don't know what the panel looks like...

 

On AVSIM Library any time soon

Nicely done - I recall seeing her at Kemble, where the first shot was taken. You can find some of my shots of her there on that day with a bit of Googling.

 

The other UK-based 195 is N999MH, which lives at Henstridge - saw her there only yesterday, by happy coincidence. Is there any chance you could do a repaint of '999MH? I can supply a photo or two if you like but here is an example:

Thanks. I'm just putting the finishing touches to N195MK. 999 looks OK (not the Old Bill is it?) The trouble I'm finding is that the majority of RW paint schemes all look much of a muchness, but hey, that's how it is.

This is the Original panel.

 

OK the lay-out of instruments is different.

Nevertheless its very well possible to texturise the panel to give the same feeling.

Black panel in red upholstery, small rectangle in red in the middle.

The brass/copper emblem in the top-centre.

Black yokes on a red collumn.
A real challenge for an interior-texture-artist.

Which, honest to God, ain't me. :(

Sorry , by saying " I'm sorry, I don't know what the panel looks like.." you really give the impression, you`d have done it if you knew how the real one looks.

 

Nevertheless this is a fine moment to go in that  "interior stuff"  too , its not more complicated than the outside.
You could do the reg-plackard then you can do the rest too.

You are a master-painter, I am sure you`ll be  succesfull on the inside job.

 

Making the interior giving the "Original atmosphere" is adding so much to a paint.
Imagine four paints of  the same type of plane , four different interiors.

Thats the ultimate aircraft-painting.

My bad.

[Leen3131cs 107]

Sorry thats a missed chance then.

Making interiors is so much fun.

 

have a look

We really need painters who go for the "whole thing" ,just the outside is (in fact) half the job.(or less)

Being just an exterior painter never satisfied me.

My first re-paint ever (PH-WAP for FLYII fourteen years ago) was a complete paint, interior and exterior.

Yes, totally insane and it took me more than a year.

Nevertheless the best thing I did  ever ( in sim-painting)

Hi , Ron I just posted this to make you read the post above ,wich I edited.

 

 

Grab your brushes and go for it.

You can do it and I really hope you`ll  go to "total-painting"

Please Ron , use your talents for the interior too.

[Ron Attwood 3,464]

Tell you what Leen, let's have a deal. I'll do the outside and you, because you think interiors are fun, can do the inside. I do enough to satisfy my aspirations. Also and I'm not being falsely modest here, what I have I wouldn't call 'talent'. If you want talent look to Jan Kees or Richard Lucyk. (I'm sure I misspelled that, sorry Richard)

[Leen3131cs 107]

I am sorry Ron.

I have done so many interiors I really do not have the feel to do a missing one on a plane I did not paint.

There is no need for me to prove I can, once more.

To be frank I honestly think a painter should be capable of doing both.

 

The only thing I want to do is promoting to do the inside as well.

In other words , I am trying to let you guys produce a complete work.
Must say I think you are a very good painter and I never saw an interior been done by Jan-Kees.( his exteriors are second to NONE)
He might have done some, he did not show screens about anyways.( as far as I know, but I am sure he can do it)

 

Making interiors as well is just an extra ,leave it or not.

 

Cheers

 

Leen
