Hi Viz White and Red Stars are on top so far!

There will be some special edition schemes that will be custom airbrushed in my shop if desired, once the jet is ready those prices will be announced.

High Viz White definitely seems to be the favorite, then checkers and green stars are tied for 2nd and 3rd!

Checkers is my fave, but you need to push the yellow triangles on the wings furthur out toward the tips for more yellow or else it will be pretty hard to see.

Hi viz white fo-sho! The stars paint schemes look like the CARF MX-2 design schemes (too Giant Scale). All are very nice indeed. What is the ETA for the liberty?

Those are my top 3... in that exact order... It took me 30 mins to decide between the hi-vis white and the checkers.. but the white won

I like it.. but personally i think the inboard part of the wings and stabs would look better checkered or white instead of red..

Very nice. But since the wavy checkers is in 2nd why not do that on the bottom?

I have not seen the price range for this plane yet......you have one?

I am just trying to keep the Hi Vis one simple and very visible, wavy checkers look cool, but some find it causes a bit of disorientation.

As for price range, the introductory price for the small Liberty will be $1299 complete. Not sure what the price will be after the introductory pricing.

I like (love) the top and side profile. For me the checkers look cool but can make the plane go cammo. What do you think about going with a white band in the center of each wing half so there is more color at the wing tip. The stab red with white down the center fuse area, and going with black diamonds down the fuse over the white. The nozzel in black would be nice too! Just my 2 cents...

Hi,

I changed right wing tip (left on pic) scheme a bit. Also I add black stripes to the diamond figures...
Back ground is like light blue sky. Now it's easier to see what would be visibility.

Normally I'll print schemes to A4 size and watch them pretty far. Then it's easy regon how graphics will work - or not.

Kimmo,

pls note that this are factory paint schemes and they must be easy to paint. The black stripes
around the diammonds are a lot of more work. If the paint schemes are to complicated the price
will be rise up and thats the last what we want .....

Yep, agree that.

If manufacturer will use bigger squares for the checkered painting it will be easier paint job and give better visibility...
Nice scheme anyway.

Tough call, as they all look good. Nice work as always Jeremy.

I voted for the yellow and purple, simply for visibility reasons. I could live with a hi vis black or white though.
