Here is C6-BFJ as she looked when operated by Bahamasair with her bare metal design. I have attempted to
achieve the highest degree of accuracy and have gone to great length to get a good looking and natural looking
metal effect.
These textures are high quality 32-bit without mips. As there was no official paint kit available for
this model, I created my own masters and then added certain details to enhance the overall result.
There are gradients and shadows, dirt and dust marks, and I have added a shadow to the engine's
outer textures and to the mouth to give it a more realistic appearance. I have also created new textures
for the gear wheels and tread. All of these textures were hand painted.
In this package I have included the model and Mike Baumann's FDE update. I have also further tweaked
the contact points to improve the ground and landing gear interaction. There is no more sinking or
floating and the nose gear reacts very smoothly even with very heavy braking. Please see the included text
file "Contact Points Tweak and Revised Engine Smoke.txt" that explains this in detail as well as the new
smoke effect for the engines.
What's next? There are still a few liveries that I am intending to pass through my paint shop hanger as part
of my Boeing 737-200 series. But for now I have other painting projects that I would like to take on. I may
also paint some of my current and future 737-200 liveries on the TinMouse II model. Enjoy!
