G-LITZ certainly lives up to it's name.. what a lovely scheme.

Keep up all the good work!

Dan.

Thanks Dan

That graphic on the nose has been a real clincher while trying to obtain the correct appearance of the paint. I searched all over the web and could not find anything better. So, I resorted in re-drawing it all while using the smaller picture as reference. It will suffice.
 
Anyone fancy trying to paint this one...G-JAWZ?

I've been mulling it over KD. If good enough pictures can be found..the bigger, the better (start searching), I'll have a look at them and determine the decision. But that one will definitely take some time.

G-REAP is another I've looked at doing. Or, should I say attempting.
 
G-LITZ taking shape

Heck of a way to spend a day. Most of what you see done here at this point was most of a Saturday (off and on) The fuse is almost completed after a few adjustments. The prop spinner looks pretty nifty when you run it up through the rpms.
....Then I have to figure out the alpha channels. The areas from the reg# forward are to be the look of polished aluminum. That continues to the nose and spinner. This is going to be interesting. I've never messed with the alpha channel to that much of a degree. Then the wings and tail feathers will get their attention. I like the challenge.

Here's a few shots of the progress.
