Great drawings as can always be expected from you Sandy 🙂

I will say that these livery suggestions lack uniqueness. As many mentioned, the 1st one reminds of PIA. I would say the 2nd is not too different from the current one and has actually gone the KLM route. The 3rd’s fuselage is too reminiscent of United’s new colors. Just my 2 cents (not worth much with the Euro climbing
:))
