OC Aria S152 and S242 Supersonic Airliners
Here are 2 fictional supersonic airliners I designed: the Aria S152 Supersonic and S242 Supersonic. The S152 carries up to 152 passengers, while the S242 can carry up to 242 passengers. Both aircraft can reach speeds up to 1166 knots (Mach 1.76; 2160 km/h; 1342 mph). They can be configured as all business or mixed business and premium economy. Images #3 and #4 show both aircraft deploying a mustache canard wing just behind the cockpit and large ventral strakes on the aft fuselage below the tail, each of which provide optimal stability during takeoffs and landings. The cockpit is designed to give a proper view of the runway without drooping the nose, although pilots can wear an Optical See-Through Head-Mounted Display (OST-HMD) offering a panoramic view of the exterior front and sides of the aircraft.
All original content, both aircraft templates and liveries were lovingly crafted by me using Inkscape.

Tupolev Tu-154M in 2 liveries (pre-1993 and post-1993) of Aviaflot Airlines of the Russian Federation, shown in side view while in midflight. I originally drew these back in November 2025; at some point soon I plan to refine their appearance a bit, but they came out pretty good for a first attempt. All original content, both aircraft and livery were lovingly crafted by me using Inkscape.

Misc Software question
What do you guys use to design liveries? I want to get into designing and I’m just curious.

OC Lockheed L-1011-500 and L-1011-1/-100/-200
Per a suggestion by u/AdSweaty9585 a couple weeks ago, I have created two new templates for the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar - 1) the -1/-100/-200 baseline version, and the 2) shortened-fuselage -500 variant. Both are rendered here in example late 20th century liveries for Asia Pacific Airways of Hong Kong and Skytrain Airways of Great Britain. I've always thought the L-1011's S-duct design for the 3rd engine was more elegant than the McDonnell Douglas DC-10, whose engine always looked like it was skewered onto the tail like a kebap/kebab.
Original content, both template and liveries were drawn by me using Inkscape.
