Painting aircraft
Hi all, first post for a while and it's good to be back.
I was wondering the other day how you would go about painting an airliner in some of the complex colour schemes we see flying about today. I imagine it starts on a scaled down model which is then scaled up and applied to the full size aircraft, but the detail and changes in colour (eg Qantas' Wanula Dreaming and the Air New Zealand rugby world cup colour schemes) seem to be quite difficult to do by either a machine or someone who isn't Vincent an Gogh.
Any ideas?
Cheers all.
