Sailorman Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 My 15-year old nephew is a keen model maker and during this pandemic lock-down has taken to preparing drawings showing colour schemes of various aircraft. I thought I'd upload a few of the ones he's done. It seems he traces out the outline of the particular aircraft and then colours in the schemes. See what you think./media/tinymce_upload/06ea8cad539739f86a396ca0e696df9c.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/11c018de8fb445d842434bcef531bed8.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/5ce3a0344fb47a017b5b39a3542030cb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailorman Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 He has also prepared drawings of all the different types of aircraft operated by our national airline - AIR MALTA. This not the current scheme but the scheme that was in use before the latest ones came into effect./media/tinymce_upload/a153463ef4d158a228fd53195706b4b2.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/1c9a10eea481cbc7d1c0f50edc817927.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I still haven’t checked what the Airfix Kids Zone includes yet, but is this where the outlines of the aeroplanes are from? Over in the Hornby Kids Zone, there are outlines of some their OO gauge locomotives to be coloured in, either physically or digitally. I imagine the Airfix Kids Zone contains the same kind of thing, but with outlines of kits instead. GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peebeep Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Nicely done, following in the footsteps of Richard Caruana? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratch Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 They look good. I suppose someone will ask about accuracy. And the port profile needs the navigation lights changing from green to red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailorman Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Malcolm's been busy drawing again!/media/tinymce_upload/59f6b42f1ea006a2c4304d1f4b85eb7a.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/f6907f9a06c8907f0cea54489dd6d302.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Surely these are coloured in by a computer software of somoe sort, as they are far too neat to be coloured in by hand. They are good, nevertheless. 😉 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailorman Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Yes, I know he's using some sort of software .....I need to ask him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
