This is a very, very special A320. This B-6388 of Sichuan Airlines was the very first Airbus produced in Tianjin, China. Just a further milestone in Airbus' success story.

And the next - can't wait to fly out :-)
(P.S.: early stage - will paint a little bit more reflections, light and shadows - I created a new layer for my Sichuan paint and will add this here too)

VERY EARLY STAGE. The dots at the aft makes me crazy... I will add all the light and shadow layers when I am satisfied with the dots...
But it was a lot of fun to trace the figures...

A white layer - with only 20-30% opacity over the paint. With the Sichuan Airlines I ceated finally THE perfect (for me) layer which I will use now always. It was a lot of trial and error

Just my way of making it look a little more photoreal, overdone it slightly though :)

Thias will be published soon because it is a request. But as soon as version 2.1 is out i update it. White wings and "photoreal" vertical stabilizers are finished too. Will be at AVSIM soon.

The Vueling makes me crazy: The grey dots are incredible difficult to match. The body with its colorfull painting was "easy" against the grey dots. But if I am satisfied once with the dots many many many different Vuelings will follow. By the way: Living in BCN must be great. I love this city - stayed there very often. Barrio gotico is unique and I want to see the new terminal at the airport urgently....

Not now - but I am sure if the version 2.1 is out there will be 5-6 Iberia repaints :-) I 've done a A319 in Iberia colors - so it is easy to adopt it...
