I'm trying to repaint Thai's new livery but it's difficult doing the back of the aircraft. (The purple part.) How exactly would I do that in Photoshop without having to make it photoreal?

Looking at a photo here, it seems simple enough. Use the pen tool to draw the shape of the purple part, and then make the drawn line a selection. Fill in that Selection with purple.
Hope this helps. If you need more help or want me to go into more detail (steps) then no problem, just say so.

Okay played around with the pen tool, not trying it for Thai atm, just trying to figure out how to use it. How exactly do I get the color to stay behind the line? I used the Paint Bucket tool but it just covers the whole thing.

When you have made the 'work path' ( you connect the pen line up so its a full ring) then right click, and press 'make selection'. then you can fill in that selection

Here is a Tutorial I made on how to use the pen tool. It might help you a little bit. Also try search up tutorials on Google or You tube on how to use the Pen tool.

Step 7:
Step 8:

Sorry about Steps 7 and 8, but when I made this Tut the "Print Screen" option would not work if a pop-up menu or a dialog box was open. I can try to go into more detail if you need me to do so.

Okay, I think I got the hang of it, thanks! I'll post pics of how my repaint is coming along later.
