Hi, I'm new to this forum but I came across a design I really thought was nice by someone on YouTube. I agree with armagebedar above that it probably would have been too expensive and weight penalizing to paint and fly, but it really looked nice. At least the 60th anniversary and history of the airline comes through to me. Why it didn't make it to at least the finals is beyond me. Those characters are even ANA's too. Represents Japan very well IMHO.
This person even rendered it out in what looks like flight sim and really you get a good feel for how it would look in real life. Wow, was really impressed.
