Hehe,  Taking a hint from Slient Exploder's reply to my 1st Lufthansa repaint, I sized this one up and figured she wouldn't take long. Smiley

She's slightly different than the one he suggested, but she shares the same reg. as my new Lufty paint, so I did this one instead.

I'll be uploading her soon. Smiley
See, it pays sometimes to reply to my posts and suggest repaints.  Grin  (But I'm pretty much done with the A300, 14 or so is enough for one painter, I'll let rest of the painters get the remaining ones...but I may have one more in the shop. Wink)

Yep.   I use Activecamera extensively for all my preview shots on the ground.

It's great for walking around the aircraft,  and you can get some great angles using it. Smiley

Great repaint,Steve,but the only difference to the real pic is that the logo on the rudder is the same one as on the new paint scheme.

That's what I thought too, but upon closer inspection, I noticed that the black ring around the logo is thinner on the older model, so I painted it that way. Smiley
Here is the pic I used as a ref.

I think that if we had a better pic of your plane, we may have seen the thin black lineon the tail logo, but I'm not sure, so that's one of the reasons I painted this registration (better ref. pics) Smiley

If you compare the logo on this one to my current scheme, you'll see that the new one does have a thicker black ring around it. (and the blue is a tad darker).
