Create a Simviation Livery!!





After seeing so many of our talented SimV members take up the challenge of repainting, we thought what better way to show off those talents and skills, than by running a SimV Livery Contest.

This will be the second installment of this contest, the first being held back in 2007,  the winning livery was created by EGNX.



...



All entries must be submitted by July 18th 2010.

Poll will run July 21st - 30th 

The winner will be announced August 1st 2010.






Rules & Guidelines

- You can use any Freeware aircraft (or other freeware or default addon) that you choose. But it MUST be Freeware or default so that anyone can enjoy it.  Wink



- It can be for either FSX or FS2004. It would be nice if it works in both sims, but it is known that FSX offers many features for painting that are not compatible with FS9, and so the  choice of sim is up to you.



- You can submit up to two entries.  However, only one entry per person will make it to the poll, and the poll entries will be decided by Mitch & ShaneG, a maximum of 10 entries will make it to the poll.



- When all entries have been received and decided upon, the poll will be started, and the StudioV members will vote on which is their favorite. The winning paint scheme will then be uploaded as the :
"Official Simviation Livery Contest Winner".



- All other schemes can be uploaded if the creators wish it,
but only the winner can claim the title.  Wink



- Other than the fact that your paint scheme must contain the Simviation logo in some way, your creativity is your only limiting factor here. Go wild, use your imagination, and have fun with it!   



Mitch & ShaneG


Here are the hi res SimV logos:

Thanks. I thought about a lower bare metal half, but don't really know how how to approach it. I do know about Alpha channels and the like but I think the blue should be alright, more appropriate to SimV. Smiley

I like what you've done with the layout, interesting choice of aircraft too. The bright colours should help it stand out at airports. Wink

Is anybody else working on their SimV Livery?

Wow, where is everyone that posted before? There are some really nice paints so far and I know there are even more great ones that haven't been posted yet. I wish I could do repaints.  Cheesy

Cool

I'd appreciate a deadline extension.
This week is really busy for me while the next one is much calmer.

So how do we submit our entries? Do we just post pics of the livery?

Yes, post a general shot of the livery in this thread. Try to show off most of the paint, if possible. i.e side-view shot or front 3/4 view. Wink

I decided to scrap that 747 repaint and restart using Project Airbus's A319.

Here is my entry:
