Jens Il 14 is next into the paintshop.

Nice work Steve! This type of aircrafts is not really my cup of tea, but your repaints made me download it.

Cheers,
Huub
 
Hi Steve,

The screenies look great. Can't wait to download the repaints. :jump: Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Maarten
 
Glad you like them, the screenies are all work in progress shots and I've bin adding bits and altering bits on all of them for release. As for the polar scheme i'm currently playing with I have got conflicting info on whether it should be bare metal or white, so I have painted it white, so it differs from the first polar scheme.
 
Hi Steve,

The book "Ilyushin IL-12 and IL-14 - Successors to the Li-2" by Y. Gordon and D. Komissarov (Red Star Vol. 22, Midland/Ian Allan, ISBN 1-85780-223-3, 2005) features on page 73 a b/w photo of a Polar Il-14P. The captian says: "pictured here in pre-1973 silver/red Polar colours". The livery is basically the same as featured on your first two screenies. There is no mention of a combination of this livery with a white top, so I would say that your silver/red liveries are the correct ones for that period.
From 1973 on the Polar livery was based on the early 70's Aeroflot livery, similar to the Polar An-12 livery.

Cheers,
Maarten
