Coming Soon - Curtiss Jenny Liveries.

Hi Good People,

Some interesting stuff happening within the Ford Project Team.

Edward and I have been busy and have been creating some very good liveries for the Default Microsoft Curtiss Jenny JN4D aircraft.
This old girl has not been a friendly model for repainters and there is a void of historical,Fact, Fun and Fictional liveries for her.

Edwards, after a lot of research has come up with a bucket of historical aircraft data that we could paint up for the Jenny that would work with the "mirror mapping" and other qwerks in the overall model texture mappings.

Just a couple of liveries we have create are:

Daredevil Lindbergh - a close representation of one of Lindbergh's early aircraft

Another is a Jenny hanging from the roof in a museum - The Fish. I am normally fairly creative but this livery is a real beauty.

There are over 20 other liveries already painted and you can check them out at the Ford Project - Coming Soon Page - click on any page top banner and you will be taken to the Coming Soon Page or the direct link is:

We are trying to cover a good global use of this girl and give her a burst of life for simmers that enjoy LOW and SLOW flying in the simulators.

There is still several more to be repainted up for this girl - some listed on the Coming Soon Page.

IMPORTANT - These liveries are for the FS2004 Default Curtiss Jenny JN4D aircraft - HOWEVER, I believe that the aircraft ports very easily to FSX and these liveries will work very well in FSX as well (even a little bit richer)

So if your interested in LOW and SLOW flying in your sim (FS2004 or FSX) then there are some pretty good new liveries soon to become available, hopefully early August 2014

One more livery just to demonstrate our global reach for this girl:

That's all for now - hope you enjoy our FREE stuff designed for your simulator entertainment.

Regards
Garry and Edward.
 
Thanks Mate,

Glad you like our work and that it enriches your simming environment.

Edward was doing some numbers the other day and we are pushing towards 700 liveries specifically for the Microsoft Default Aircraft (the ones that most painters avoid) :untroubled:.

We must be very close to the largest repository of liveries for the Default girls all in one place - and that is much less than a third of the stuff we have created over the years in the Ford Project with a focus on the 1930's era.

And everything for FREE - through the generosity of Edward and his commitment to the simming community.

Should be able to push the liveries out in early August - need to work out a strategy and method of release - some packs and some individual releases to be orgainised etc - after I finish off the ones still left to do.

Regards and happy simming
 
Any Chance of "Great Waldo Pepper" Jenny?!

Garry,
This is terrific news!

Any chance you'll do the Jenny from the terrific movie "Great Waldo Pepper"?

Slideshow Now Available

Hi Good People,

Edward and I have drawn a line at 40 repaints - at least for this first batch of Curtiss Jenny JN4D's releases

There is a slideshow presenting all 40 liveries (including two Paint Kits) now available:

http://www.ford-tri-motor.net/counter/DH88-Counter/click.php?id=55

It is an Inalbum slideshow - so very safe to run and hopefully enjoy.

We now have to work out a strategy for how to release this small bucket of liveries to both the FS2004 and FSX environments - but we should be able to get it all out to the simming buffs by very early August 2014.


Regards and happy simming from the Ford Project Team

Sorry Bookman1960 - the Waldo Pepper livery missed the cut - however, I have got the pics and when/if we do a second run then she will be in there.
