Default Which colour scheme for CA 260??

Hi All

I want your opinion, I am gonna order a CA Extra 260 however not that keen on the standard Kiwi Schemes. So I had a good mate of mine do me some different ones, he is a whiz on photoshop. However now I have an even harder choice!!

Let me know what you prefer.

I like #2 with the silver checkers. The checkers should only be an accent on the scheme.

Also remember Comp arf yellow is much darker then what you are using.

I think option #3 with silver checkers would be great.

That looks great! #7 would also look good with silver checkers.

If you look at the small icon you can see what it will look like in the air, then you look at the large picture and you will see what it looks like in the pits. I think 7B is the winner.

Hey 1Can

Do you have AFPD, throw me an email and ill get these schemes up and running. Ive already designed the yellow and turquoise scheme for it so changing the colours wont be a prob.

Ill go for 7B

Hey Casey

I didn't actually do it, it was a friend of mine who is pretty skilled at all this photoshop stuff. He is using Coral Draw for this.

I have forwarded him your email and he is going to send you an email today with the file and what he did etc.

Cheers
1CAN
