Sorry if this has been posted before, but I've just found it and think it's great. The Western in First Great Western livery looks fantastic :D http://fictitiousliveries.fotopic.net/c857346.html

A great site that appears to be updated regularly! - There's always a chance some of these liveries could appear in the real world, as was seen recently with the class 87's.

I wonder if the guy who does the repaints has thought about reskinning MSTS stock?

They are just sooo good. The details are amazing. For example, look at the class 40 in Intercity livery. The stripes go right into and out of the cab door recess perfectly.

The A4s in Virgin livery are good to, the lights are a nice touch and 71 in present southern livery is nice as well. Not sure about the 9F in BR blue though.

The APT in Eurostar livery looks very modern - amazing what a new coat of paint can achieve.

Photoshopped, I think he gets rid of all the colour from the original image to give a white base to work on then adds the topcoat in layers. Something I can't do :-?
