Sure - I will work on yours after the Asian Connection one.

Bear with me - they are coming.

The limited run is now over, congrats to those who have got one or are getting one. :wink:

nice shading work

where do you get your blueprints? most of my sources have mostly cars with a few superb aero one on the side....

AndyC · **Reply #23 on:** January 04, 2008, 09:22:07 pm

I always always always draw my own blueprints - the ones I find on the web (and believe me I've looked all over!) are almost always inaccurate in one way or another.

I didn't use a blueprint on the Herald however, I just started off with a base layer and gradually layered everything else on top of that, windows, panel lines, shadows etc. Took about 3 hours all in to get the end result.

Just an FYI. No airline would put a specific airplane into their logo. It would force them to change it when they shift away from that plane. If you look at the logos of real companies, they are very plain and generally are just text. Have a look at Continental, Microsoft, IBM, Coke, General Motors, etc. You're probably best off avoiding the airplane in the background and going with something more simple. The 70's was the jet age. You aren't exactly putting forward a modern look if you have a prop based plane right on your logo.

FYI... This thread seems to be about signatures not logos. Seems like the planes that Andy has illustrated have the LOGOs of the respective airlines on their tails.

AndyC · **Reply #27 on:** January 06, 2008, 05:17:51 am

Although you have a good point - this thread is indeed about signatures for the forum, not about airline logos. :wink:

I could easily design a logo, but most airlines already have that - people like having an aircraft in sample livery to sign off with, or at least I think they do.

Is my sig finished soon?

AndyC · **Reply #29 on:** January 06, 2008, 11:20:25 am

You will have it today.
