   First and foremost, do NOT give me grief about this.

The airplane I fly is being sent to get re-painted next week, however we have yet to choose a new paint scheme.  I would greatly appreciate it (maybe offer a prize) if I could get some designs from you guys, I've provided the template below.  Now, there is some criteria:

There MUST be color on top of the cowling (the surface extending from the front of the windscreen to the prop.
There MUST be color, preferably interesting color, on the tail.
The base color should be white, simply because it looks best.  However, if you thing you could do better, by all means do so.
The design should be interesting, not just the standard horizontal lines on old factory schemes.  Again, however, if you feel you could do that and make a good scheme, by all means do so.
The Letters "N8432C" needs to be on the airplane (the height being about as big as the height of the tires) behind the back end of the wing.  This is just extra, you don't have to put it on, but they will be put
on in the final, so it might make the design better to incorporate them.
The Letters "Cherokee Cruiser", fairly small, should appear in an appealing spot in front of the wing.  This is just extra, you don't have to put it on, but they will be put on in the final, so it might make the design better to incorporate them.
The Aircraft type is a Piper PA28-140.

The jobs don't have to look spectacular, just rough ideas.  Also I should state that the main colors we're looking at are blues, greens, golds, possibly reds, and of course white.

Thanks!
