I wanted to take a trip with an Air France -1000 but there wasn't one, so I thought "hey, that looks simple, I'll knock one up quickly". Ha ha. So here's Brit Air's F-HMLL - which I believe is the last CRJ-1000 - in Air France livery circa 2013. You can fly this one to Singapore if you like, the real one went. Far too many hand drawn bits from lack of suitably crisp source. Also a shoddily done interior with unfortunately mirrored bits because I don't understand "quick". At least it's not blue. I'm not totally sold on the red yet - it was taken from AF branding but it's come out awfully bright. Photographers use all sorts of filters so you can't really rely on photos for colour matching, but even still, so I might revisit it sometime. No 4k textures this time, they all came out crisp enough. Brit Air became part of HOP! which is now just AIr France, who are ditching the CRJs so there is little chance of seeing one in full Air France again despite what their website shows. - Richard Dastardly

This was a request, CRJ-900 wearing the livery of a Loganair ERJ, This one was a little challenging - the tail is 100% my work from scratch, there's 5 different sections to match up per side, all at different angles & subtlly different scales. The fuselage & wings probably took 20 minutes, the tail... try that in hours ( although I had so much fun the first time I redid the whole thing ). The aircraft is named after my mother's clan ( both of them, although they're closely related anyway ). -Richard Dastardly
