I never went for looks when it came to picking planes, payware and freeware. I always wanted flyability and simulation out of them. Doesn’t have to be necessarily study grade realistic but it has to be immersive and stable and do the basics well. To that extent I actually prefer certain modded default planes. Working title CJ4 beats the living lights out of CRJ IMHO. DA42-DA62 mods are pushing into what I’m accustomed to with Aerobask planes in XP. Modded Longitude with modded G3000 is very good would be excellent if I could figure out how in the world Vnav works in that thing. Flight/system modeling ability to do basics and stability first, sounds second and I’m happy. With modern 3d modeling techniques tools and hardware you’d have to try really hard to totally screw up 3d model.
