Normally the default Bell 206 is boring. Just look at how a simple change of coloring can make a screenshot with the default 206 look very nice:

Yep, very nice.

Personally, I would add more shine, but that's just me.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

I believe you are talking about the bloom. This is not changeable. FS generates the bloom. If you are talking about the shine from the alpha channel, I didn't make the paintjob. It's default. The change of colors refers to the image being edited.

No, I meant the paint. As I don't yet have FSX, I did not know whether it was default paint or a repaint. It was not a criticism, just an observation.

When I get FSX, I'll see if I can add some shine to it. Roll Eyes

The color changes may give it a less shiny look. It's shiny enough to me, but your opinion may be different. Cheesy

Adding shine can be done with the alpha channel, just like in FS9 as far as I know (as a proof, your Beech 300 repaint works perfectly fine with FSX).

As for the shot, very nice! Could've been an excellent advert for M$.
