Download Paint.net and DTXBmp. Check out Al Bradbury's painting tutorial on AVISM.

Of course, then be sure to find my screen shot of my attempt in the painting forum lol

It ain't as easy as it looks.  (Hint: I call it the "Parts Warehouse Camo Scheme")  If you are technologically confident, you may do better.

I would recommend waiting for the paintkit before trying to repaint.  You can succesfully repaint the Air France(easiest to paint over) but it is still a lengthy process. It took 3 days for me to repaint it into Delta, and it is far from perfect.

I didn't know that the proces to create the liveries is so time-consuming I spend today 10 h to repaint some aircraft  LOT (Polish airlines) and I didn't do much

It is truth to do good liveries (repaint) we need to spend I think few days
I will give up  Cry

You don't have to give up(it's good practice), just do it little by little and it will take time but eventually it will be done. I spend about six hours over 3 days repainting the Delta scheme. Once they release the paint-kit one can repaint a plane in less than an hour.

The skills you are developing will serve you will when the paint kit comes out. It isn't a magic wand that will make things all that much easier. Painting is a lot harder than it used to be, but if you are sufficiently motivated and have the time for it, it can be fun, and you can make a real contribution to the hobby. I just don't have time to mess with it and review, and other stuff, but I wish I did.

The Delta looks good, Todd.  Is that AES stuff around it?

I think he meant it's "a joke" as in "hard to use", being in seperate tiles, rather than one big template where everything's lined up.
