Newcomer / Intro Could someone post a screenshot of a paint job for me?

I don't own a Type 7 Transporter, but I am really curious what any of the Sheer Line paint jobs look like from the side. Most ships have the detailing of the paint job on the roof, but this one of the few where it seems to be on the side. At least as far I as I can tell from the tiny single angle screenshot in the FD store. It has made me rather curious though.

No need to buy it, so long as you already own a type 7 you can view it in the docking bay.

There are at least two ways to view paintjobs in the game. From the main screen you click Game Extras or something, then Store(?), then you have a UI similar to the website that (I believe) lets you select any ship, but with the benefit of being able to move the view around the ship. Not sure exactly, but you can try it and see.

(can't really show you side, because going into camera mode cancels the paintjob selection)

Incorrect. In-game going to the Store you'll see your current ship. Click on the orange ship icon above to select any of them whether owned or not. Pick one and use a Holo-Me type rotating interface (same in-game bindings) to see it from any angle. A player can even purchase paint jobs for ships they don't own but plan to someday. Comes in handy when Frontier has limited time sales as in the past with Midnight Black (often at Halloween) , Gold, Silver etc.

Not to worry as the Frontier Store will always make it easy for a player to spend their money! Alas the sales department didn't hire anyone to explain how to do it! Welcome to Elite Dangerous.

No problem. Playing for years I often miss a lot. I once tested the max jump range for economical versus fastest routes only to later see the values were already listed in the Galaxy map.
