Silver Bullet

jetabout · 03-09-2004, 12:24 PM

OK, since it's been a rather quiet week here, thought I make things more interesting and maybe help solve a small problem. Plus I just updated my site

I received a request for an SIA A345, one of them being in silver. I did one with a Northwest Airlines style silver body and it just came out looking 'dirty'. So I made on in chrome and it came out slightly better, but I'm still not sure whether I should keep this and upload it or just bury it. Whaddya thunk?

Gold and silver really don't do to well together with yellow. Yellow works with gold but not silver.

Here is a photo of Coors Light Silver Bullet plane.

Agreed. Which is why I'm rather wary when making this one. I just kept in mind that you often find wris****ches that combine gold and silver (or silver coloured metal). Otherwise I'm not at all a fan of the two colours together.

Forgot completely about the silver bullet and Coors connection. I have a good excuse though

BTW, this poll is open till the end of the week.

Would be different then. When used in coins or other things the a yellow is typically omitted. However I do like the profile but in a real world case I wouldn't want to see them on an actual plane. The yellow would be a distraction.
