For this paint I decided to try something a bit different.
As always, suggestions, comments, tips are welcome;
A bit of metal-flake anyone?
Looking at these pics reminded me that I forgot to remove the chipping paint from the tip tanks!
Well, back to the Photoshop.

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
That looks great. It's a bit different from the usual civilian schemes.

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
Very nice. VERY...
How about a black surround around the glazing? Would offset the spec wonderfully.

Thanks for the comments, guys.
Mallcot, pardon my ignorance but I don't know understand what you mean by "a black surround around the glazing"
Could you lead me to an example.

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
Probably the window frames should be black. [WINKING FACE]

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
I like it but I think I'd prefer it with white wings, for me personally the lighter dull blue doesn't go with the white and brighter royal blue. The pattern livery itself though is beautiful, very modern.

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
When I first started with this paint I had for a while vacillated between white wings or the blue-grey.
I went with the latter.
Lewis, my friend, you were right.
The white wings look far better in this paint.

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
George, that is a fantastic paint! The white wings are very striking and attractive when paired with the spec!
I think what Malcott was suggesting was a thin black outline of the windows outside, as a way of setting them apart from the spec?

Outline around the windows, hmm.
I'll give it a go.

Something along these lines:
That type of refractive paint is less resilient and elastic than other types, so it's quite common to cover it in areas subject to high wear or scuffing - doors, window surrounds that kind of thing.
Don't think I've seen a Comanche repaint with dark window surrounds but the TB-20 illustrates perfectly.

You guys mean something like this?

Re: A more conventional repaint from me
The black works so well with the purple!
