reef 3 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Hey guys. Another composite for you guys to mooch over. The aircraft are not my screenshots (no PC if you didnt know) but rather cutouts posted by other people for use as i have. These are however heavily edited to fit the backdrop. Feel free to point out mistakes. Thanks for looking it over... steve Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Steve, Where do I start? One of the best I have seen, the lighting is spot on and what a fantastic backdrop too. Brilliant! Cheers ...and it looks great as my new wallpaper! :nervious: Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Cheers Joe, no greater compliment than hanging it on your desktop!! I thought you might like this one :nervious: steve Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Superb! Love it! The horizontal stabilizer on the TA-152 looks impossibly small, but is out on a long lever arm, so must have worked OK. Kurt Tank was a genius who just happened to be working for the wrong side. There appear to be a couple if holes in the Spit's rudder - close call! Great lighting effects. John Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 There appear to be a couple if holes in the Spit's rudder - close call! Wow I had not noticed that, even has the light shining through :nervious: Roughly how long did it take Steve? Link to post Share on other sites
1mag1n3 0 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Wow........ One of your best so far! That tail light shining through! :nervious: Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 It probably took hours! :wub I think I'm in love with Steves shot :wub Excellent Steve! As Mut has said, 10, 10, 10 and a extra 10 for making my jaw go to the other side of the world! Mond of Joe! Kieran Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks John and nice job noticing the holes. Just curious but did anyone notice the flame bursts coming from the exhausts? Noticed it occuring after watching Corsairs leaving a carrier at dawn in a documentry. Joe i would say under 2 hours with the most time consming part being the selection tool to enable me to light areas seperately. Hehe Kieran, stick around long enough and i'm sure you will be able to create similar :nervious: Thanks Chris.. Cheers... steve Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 reef, I did notice the stacks. It took a minute to figure out what I was seeing on the dark side of the AC but it finally dawned on me. There's a little green tint to them on my monitor, which looks about right. Did you research the firing-order of the engine ignition system to get the right stacks in the sequence? Knowing you, you probably did! You're a tough act to follow!

reef 3 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 how do you do it!? I will run a small workshop soon to help people get a bit more out of editing. All pretty simple things but bring them together and i'm sure you will all improve your own shots. Oh and of course you can make it your desktop :wink: Cheers guys, your comments are what makes it worthwhile. steve Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if the firing order was right or not, but it looks plausible. That's good enough. John Link to post Share on other sites
fighterpilot 0 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 It fits perfectly on my screen! :wink: Link to post Share on other sites
