md_eleven 0 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi all I have always loved to draw and paint. A few weeks ago I decided to put aside pencil and paper and try my skills on the PC. It took some practice but slowly I get the hang of it. I still have a lot to learn but it is great fun. This is not a screenshot or anything, just something I drew on my PC. If it is not relevant feel free to delete this post Thanks stefan Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,488 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Art & edits is what this section is about! You seem to have picked up the hang of it very quickly, this looks like a professional shot, well done Cheers, Joe Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Looks like Douglas did it themselves! Superb! Link to post Share on other sites
md_eleven 0 Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Thanks! Since it is allowed to post these I will post one more. This was only my first attempt at drawing an aeroplane so it is not as good as the MD-11. I have a few others but they are of cars and spaceships, so not appropriate for this forum. If I ever do a plane again I guess I can post it if it is good enough. Stefan Link to post Share on other sites

mutley 4,488 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 The only thing I get for this is grief from my wife, because I spend too much time on the computer Welcome to the club Stefan! Just so long as every now and again "She Who Must Be Obeyed" has some chores done then I normally get away with with it Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

hurricanemk1c 195 Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Both excellent! But, I have to say, the 787 is the new 'plastic doll' Queen! Link to post Share on other sites
mike H 456 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Great Work Stefan, :nea: you have a great talent there. I just love them all. Well Done Sir. Link to post Share on other sites
md_eleven 0 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Both excellent!But, I have to say, the 787 is the new 'plastic doll' Queen! I believe "Plastic Fantastic" is the commonly used term to describe her :-) Thanks for all the nice comments. I worked on some more "natural" objects and have just finished a butterfly. But I think I will attempt a military aircraft next. Stefan Link to post Share on other sites

md_eleven 0 Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Thanks a lot! I have some more on my website ( fsclips.com ). Some of which are not aviation related. In fact I have just uploaded a new picture today. It was the biggest project so far and took me sveral weeks to complete. It is right at the top of the gallery page. I am wondering what aircraft to draw next. I haven't done any Airbusses yet. I don't like the look af the A380 too much...hmm..any suggestions? Or should I try a military plane? I dunno... stefan Link to post Share on other sites
