All,

I didn't find a Virgin Express livery. Does anyone know if Virgin Express livery exist to IXEG? If not, can anyone create it? It would be very appreciated.

Here are same real pictures of OO-LTU Virgin Express B733.

Hi Jorge Uvo and SWA4420,

Thanks for requests, I will look into them.

Just keep in mind I’m a beginner and have only started painting a little over 7 days ago. And looking at the SW livery..not only does it scares me because it looks very advanced, but also The amount of chloroform I’ll need to give to my wife to allow to me to invest the time to do it would probably cost a fortune:lol:!

But I’m not one to be defeated. So I’ll give it a go..but I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to do it.. so I won’t promise anything.

thanks again! 

Nick

LOL, Nick!  I hear you....yeah, I'm sure it would be a challenge to do that one, but I've asked for it before on this thread (several years ago), and nobody has done it....I have zero experience with livery painting myself....

Jim,

From the look of the livery, it wouldn’t surprise me if after 7 years, someone is still working on it haha:lol: but I feel your frustration, that’s what got me to paint my own, because nobody would paint it. And that’s why I paint what people want (try)

 I’ll see what I can do for you Jim. i’ll Give it a go. 

Now...I better go buy my wife a new handbag for this one;)

ill keep you posted

Sorry guys just a quick update.

Im now back at work (which is time demanding)

In my spare time I have two time demanding priorities (wife & game of thrones - which I have only started watching over a week ago and I’m on season 6 now..no spoilers please as I’m a late bloomer) 

so liveries are done over a couple of hours in the evening.

so far the virgin express is 80% complete.

after the release of that it’ll be the south west attempt.

thanks

WOW Nick... Great news... Looking forward for Virgin Express.

BTW, I am also a big fan of GoT. I am in the last season, but I wait the season to finish, then I watch the whole season in 2 nights.

Jorge Uvo,

stay tuned, uploading the livery in 10 mins, just getting pictures together.

yeah that’s the best way IMO as I hate waiting in anticipation haha, I’m just constantly binge watching it, on S7E4 after the livery is uploaded.

To all, and Jorge Uvo for the request.

Virgin Express

00-LTU

2 x variants:

     2 x Clean versions (1 x With White Nose)

     2 x Dirty versions (1 x With White Nose)

Issues/Changes:

Apologies in advance, but on the right side rear door area, you'll see the fuselage glitch, this is out of my control and can not be rectified on my end (this has been the same issue with any of my liveries that have decals that cross this section of the aircraft) (not a painters fault;))

Black nose paint is not the shape on the real 00-LTU, but I made a compromise from a majority of Virgin Express 733's, as some are different shapes, so I went with the most used shape from looking at a variety of Virgin Express 733's, so I hope this isn't an issue for you.

EDIT: changed '00-LTU' to 'OO-LTU' As i thought it was numbers in the pictures (my bad eyes, sorry) so please discard the ones in the pictures.

Other than that, I really enjoyed painting this one! very challenging tail decal, there was a few moments I screamed a little:lol: but overall, great fun!

Hope you all enjoy.

Many Thanks,

Nick

After a failed attempt at trying to recreate the South West Arizona One livery (SWA4420, Really sorry again my man), I have decided to move on to another livery. 

so to that end, I'm open to suggestions?

Cheers.

Nick

Hey there if any livery artists are looking for something to do the GoGo Aviation WiFi test plane, A Boeing 737 classic (N321GG) would be awesome to see done. Thanks in advance!
