That is incredible. Shocked

My Delta widget drove me crazy.  And I used Dave Sweetman's tail template to get a good start. I can't imagine even attempting to do something as complicated as that.

I think retirement from doing textures is in order for me also.

Guys Guys don't resign from painting please, to many schemes for the handful of amazing painters out here in the ether world.

As for this scheme, the tail alone has taken near enough 2 full weeks to get to where is is now.

I use a combination of lateral and vertical multi coloured bars each 5x50 pixels wide along the seams to find my positioning.

I started on the tail section then rudder, on to the top fuselage, down to the sides and finally the apu exhaust area.

Lots of constant tweaking.
