Ethiopian 777-260LR

Post by DerKranich » 24 Dec 2010, 05:11

I haven't really painted any Airbii lately, but I felt inspired to paint this after seeing the following video and have spent a few days here and there working on it. Much is left to do, but I feel it's at a level I feel comfortable presenting a picture of it.

comments appreciated

As for my next 777 to paint, I'm debating between either Egyptair or Korean Air for the 777-300ER.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night

I've been waiting for this. Great work.
An Egypt air 773ER would be another dream come true :D

Thank you all for the comments. I have a few more pictures for you, but it shall be uploaded to Avsim shortly.

you may not notice it here, but I added reflections to the engines. They are very subtle though.

I think the custom lighting mask was worth the effort.

I also did manage to contact and befriend the mechanic in the video. He seems very appreciative of the paint, and I probably get the greatest amount of satisfaction from his commentary. He gets first dibs on it before I upload it to Avsim.
That will be great. thanks for taking the time to do this for me.
Wish you have great hollydays!
Thanks,
Mikias
