Aircraft custom livery specialist Scheme Designers (Booth N4231) introduced a concierge design service this week at NBAA-BACE 2019. Its new offering for fast-tracking paint scheme design development provided immediate access to the company’s chief artist and enhanced rendering services.
“Demand for our specialized services often results in long schedule lead times, and our new service allows clients to jump to the head of the line,” said Scheme Designers founder and CEO Craig Barnett.
In addition to direct, immediate contact with the company’s lead graphic designer, the service, available for an additional fee over standard design work, also provides 3D photo-realistic artist renderings of the customer’s aircraft during the paint scheme development process, allowing them “to better visualize the design work as compared to 2D renderings,” the company said.
Once the design is completed and approved, Scheme Designers can provide precut vinyl masks and vinyl decals for design elements or for the entire paint scheme. Concierge Design Service customers will also receive assistance in researching and choosing a paint shop, and Scheme Designers will coordinate with the chosen shop to ensure the paint is applied “flawlessly,” the company said.
Barnett stressed the New Jersey design firm will continue “providing an extraordinary level of personal service to translate their vision into art for their aircraft” for all clients.
Founded in 1997, Scheme Designers has created custom paint schemes for more than 13,500 aircraft for clients from more than 150 countries, ranging from piston aircraft and helicopters to business jets, Part 121 fleets, and privately owned executive airliners, in addition to working with more than half of aircraft manufacturers to develop the exterior styling for their factory-new models.
