OK, So I thought i'd have a go at a China Southern A321 but I don't think it is very good, what do you think?
Here is what I have done, do you think it is worth continuing?
Thanks B747-800i

Another screenshot of it... I don't know whether I should release this for you to download.
Maybe it isn't good enough for you guys?

Hey dont be so shy! YOU decide if you publish - not we. I have seen many many much much much more worse and wrong paintjobs there.
Only the "reflection" exactly in the dark blue stripe is a little bit confusing. The widest point in the fuselage is around the windows. usually there is often a light reflex. Below the widest point usually begins the shadow zone. But overall: good job. Ohh please take exacly care about the chinese letters. I did a China Southern paint and my paint has a small error there. Starboard and Stirboard are not the same....

Thanks for the reply tomthecat. I will edit the shine out tomorrow and also try and work out that Chinese lettering. Once that is done, I may publish it depending on how I feel with the paint.
Thanks B747-800i

YES. YOU decide - no one else... And if I look your paints - there is no reason for shyness. Watch the small points inside the chinese letters - they are different left and right....

Little adjustment:
1.Skyteam logo can be bigger
2.There is a small skyteam logo near left front door
In all, it is great!

Ok I think she is finally finished. I have increased the size of the Skyteam logo and added another small one aswell as editing other things which were mentioned by you all. Now can anyone see any final adjustments which may need doing? Here are 3 images to help you out
Thanks for all of your help so far with getting my paints correct,

My thought:maybe the logo is a little too big now
And the color of the winglets can be darker.
One last thing:Notice the reg number ("-" and "1"), also the sizes of the numbers.

These are the final details I can suggest to change, looking forward to its release!
