A couple of paints I've completed of the Carenado's C185F Bush X

First 8Q-MAT from the Maldivian Air Taxi fleet configured for the Tundra, Float and Amphibian versions (Configured as a float plane in real life)

and secondly a nice shiny polished aluminium scheme on the American register N9916 configured for Tundra and Float versions

Both are uploaded to the OZx site if anyone is interested.

Cheers

Allan

Great paints jetstreamsky... and I really like that you are offering each paint to more then one aircraft model...

one request Please, can you make and amphibian of the N9916.... :salute: what a beauty

Thank you
 
Hi DoubleCool,

The way I have it configured is that all textures occur only in the Tundra version, so to make one of the other variants only a small amount of work is needed.

Copy the texture.N9916 folder from the Float version into the Amphibian version (it contains only one file).

Copy the thumbnailN9916.jpg attached in this post (last picture) and put it into the main Amphibian folder

and finally edit the Amphibian Aircraft.cfg and add the following:

[fltsim.xx]

sim=Carenado_C185

The Cessna 185 is a high-winged aircraft with non-retractable conventional landing gear and a tailwheel. Over 4,400 were built with production ceasing in 1985."

That's all there is to it

How about something like this? I whipped this up when the 185 first came out.

Peter, looking through 729 pics on airliners.net for dirt inspiration, these aircraft are a remarkably clean bunch of aircraft. I found one Scottish example with mud thrown up under the wing from picking up skydivers in a field, but paintwise these are obviously much loved aircraft. I`ll look into some mud work on the Tundra, but this is a new area of painting for me, so I`ll see how it works out.
