[REQUEST] Air Holland livery, the older style

Post by acf492 »

Hello,

I've been waiting a while to post this one. I would like to create/edit my own models one day, and I wanted this livery to be my first.

However, I am seeing that a lot of amazing models exist for aircraft like the 737 and 757 which Air Holland had painted in this particular style. So this request could fit most suitably with a creator who is already in progress creating repaints of the existing models. I think if/when I get into 3D modeling I will likely do aircraft real and fictitious (ShadowWraith!!) which have not already been created in good quality.

The reason for the request is sentimental, I have a fondness for both Air Holland and the 737, which were part of my earliest and most memorable childhood experiences.

Thanks in advance, and I'll consider it as special as a birthday present in 2019 should it be created.
I'm back.

That's quite a unique livery! Very cool. A relic of the pre-Euro-white days no doubt.

I'm very happy that you're still around, which made me remember an enormours effort from you to the civilian community back then, so i've think in my mind "I must have to paint - this would be my way to try to say thank you" :) .
After 9 months away from YSFlight, i'm glad i still know how to do paint in Blender.
After finishing that paint i've installed YSFlight, and after several tryings, my air config file was working normal, but the aircraft was not appearing in game. I've lost my patient, and i deleted YSFlight manually, because the uinstall button do the installation of YSFlight lol.

Here's the .dnm file of the aircraft, missing the air_ , .dat , coarse and cockpit (.srf) files.

I also did a Air Holland Logo:

Thanks to the author of the aircraft Decaff 42

OMG!!! Bday present 2019 just got bumped up to Christmas present 2018!!! Whoohoo, thanks Lucas! :D

I made my own .dat using Decaff's USAirways/b752_USAir_Blue_RR.dat, but I presume that most of the .dats are identical, except for the IDENTIFY line.

For the IDENTIFY line in the Air Holland .dat file, I would like to know what you'd like it to be, so anyone with the dnm can be able to join a server. I'd propose, based on what I've seen elsewhere:
IDENTIFY "[decaff_42/Lucas]AirHolland_757-200_old"
I'm back.

Thank you all.

Well, my tradition with VRG Paintshop (viewtopic.php?f=168&t=9576) is to keep only the name of the creator of aircraft - only a way to show to the public the hard work and dedication, and as well the allowement to us paint it from the author of the aircraft.

Some news:
- VRG Paintshop Pack 1 will be updated before going to YSRepo.
- The new one is a I5 4460 8GB RAM GTX 1050 2GB
- My old computer is dead, so i've lost the VRG Paintshop Pack 2.
- I've bough my first aviation video featuring the MD-11F
- Please note that this 757 will be eventually update to correct the color of the engines. More paints of Air Holland are coming as well.

That's all folks!
