Let us begin with the Airbus Paintshop found within Hamburg, Germany, introducing one-third of the All Nippon Airways’ (ANA) A380 series. How adorable is this airline’s Hawaiian sea turtle design?
ANA happens to be the initial client of the Japanese superjumbo, and you can expect that the other two ANA A380s are headed for the same sea turtle treatment pictured above. Sea turtles can be found in Hawaii, hinting at the plane’s commuting path to Narita-Honolulu. There will be three colors, beyond the blue of this first design, the second being green and the final one being orange.

Painting the 3,600m² surface of the aircraft became a 21-day long job which involved a sensational 16 individual color tones.
