This ATR 72-212 was built for Simmons Airlines March 1993 and operated for American Eagle. In May 1998, it was transferred to American Eagle. Four years later, in October 2002, it was transferred to Executive Airlines. In March 2013, it was stored in Blytheville, AR. Six months later, in August 2013, it was sold to FedEx and converted to a cargo aircraft. It has since been scraped.

I don't like Med templates, there too hard to paint.
but the Norebbo templates are a lot easier to paint, so I still prefer them
Lemme ask you, what kind of design software are you using?but the Norebbo templates are a lot easier to paint, so I still prefer them
Lemme ask you, what kind of design software are you using?
MS Paint for the Norebbo templates and freephototool.com for Med's
I'd recommend using sketchbook, it's free, easy, and great for beginners, also use med templates.
GIMP is also free and not hard to use, it's what I use for my liveries
So is paint.NET
etc etc

I've never heard of sketchbook, how do I get it?

Paint.NET:

You should get Paint.NET. That's what I use and it's a great program. It's super easy to use and I think it was even developed originally as a replacement for MSpaint.
Problems:
Templates:
- Use Med. templates. Always use Med. templates. Never use non-Med templates unless they don’t exist for the desired aircraft or an improved version is available.

Source: various photos and I also have a model of this aircraft in this livery
All that said, I doubt going to fix this, so unless you do start fixing these issues, it’d be nice for you to not clutter the gallery.
I’ve given you the tools you need, use them! Hope this helps.
