Jet Blue Blueprint Livery?

I have a request for a model of the Jet Blue Blueprint livery.


I must say it is quite attractive.


Has anyone started or tried or completed one?


TIA

No promises, but let me see what I can do.

Edit: I still have the Rhino file for my E-175. Things just got a lot easier.

Murph


As an FYI, the Jet Blue aircraft is an Embraer 190.

Longer fuselage and different engine nacelles, but very similar to the EMB 170/175

so a repaint of an EMB-175 will do the job for most casual observers.

I planned on stretching the fuselage to a 190. Unless there's a drastic difference between the engines (P&W VS Rolls), I'll leave them alone.

Awesome! One challenge I see right away is that near the top of the fuselage, the drawing seem to be distorted, so that when seen from a 'normal' perspective they look 'right.' Gimp allows distortion, but only on a linear basis, to go around a circular fuselage looks to be more complicated. The Jet Blue site does show some of the components that make up the design. (I tried to attach the picture, but I am at work and attachments are apparently forbidden).

both engine types on the EMB 170 and 190 are GE. However the -190 engines are a little larger. In paper and the scale you are repainting, it will make no real difference.


I just wanted to point it out.


Have fun

I may build it later on since I was working both engine programs for these planes while at GE.

That is very cool. Nothing like having worked on an engine design to forge a connection to all planes depending on that engine.
