hurricanemk1c 195 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 OK, so here's my entry No. 1 German Bi-plane performing to oohs from the crowd. Then the raids get in the way! If I win, which by the looks of it, will, I'll get the Airbus Series - Volume 1, but will probably get Airbus Collection! Kieran Link to post Share on other sites

reef 3 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Just a couple of pointers that may help. Bi-planes in combat often flew low over trees and hedges which makes for some great shots. Taking a shot with the aircraft making up about 5% of the picture with the other 95% sky and grass makes a great shot for a scenery competition. Many aircraft from WWI often flew with some incredible camo patterns which always look good in a screenshot. Many stunt display teams still fly Bi-planes and their lies no end of interesting shots. One of the most interesting parts of a bi-plane is the fact it has 2 wings with struts and cables holding it all together, a top down shot may as well be a monoplane. Watch the blue max, one of the best wwI fighter aircraft films ever made. Hope something here gets your creative juices flowing... steve Link to post Share on other sites

rich0984 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 I'd like to say hi to everyone on the forum. I saw a link from the Justflight site about a screenshot competition and here I am. The entries so far have been great. Here is mine, the Bristol F-2B, heading south over England. It is my favourite biplane and, after it's bad start, the most successful two-seat fighter of World War I and a superb model in fsx. Link to post Share on other sites
