UK_Widowmaker Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Very enjoyable (for me) making postcards from various Backgrounds..and using OFF Aircraft from Screenies. (Kinda gives a cool effect I think?) This is a pic of two Pfaltz's of Jasta 72s pouncing on an SE5a. Quote
Rooster89 Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Thats awesome Widowmaker. I really like it. If it were printed as a large poster I'd totally have it hanging on my wall. I can't believe the amount of inspiration this sim has given us. Its incredible. We have great screenshots, tons of skins, paintings/posters, comic books, diaries, we could make a whole book out of the "reports from the front" thread.....and....and.... Amazing what you can do with a great sim and creativity. -Rooster Quote

UK_Widowmaker Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 Wow!..thanks for your comments guys... Quote
JohnGresham Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 It's good. I think the one thing that needs more work are the shadows and the colour temprature of the aircraft. The intensity, quality and direction of the light in the background is not really reflected in the light, shadow and colours on the planes. It's a good composition though, so I'd work on it some more if I were you. Quote
UK_Widowmaker Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 (edited) Hi John.. Hmm..Yes, I guess so. But if I was THAT good an artist, I wouldn't be wasting time fixing Computers, or Making ID Badges for a living!! I still have plenty to learn about Photoshop (only been using it for 2 months... Never even took a screenie until P2) Edited May 14, 2009 by UK_Widowmaker Quote

I was nowhere near that proficient in Photohsop after two months. You've obviously got talent, you just have to nurture it...like a little kitten. Quote

UK_Widowmaker Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 Cracking mate,how did you do it? I just found a nice picture of some clouds...and cut the aircraft out of a screenshot in Photoshop..... Quite easy really.... the only tricky bit is the smoke..and removing the original background from between the aircraft struts. Quote

I think you may have missed a bit on the inner struts of the foremost Pfalz, WM. Looks darker. Wouldn't mention it except it's such a bloody nice image in every other respect. Quote

Hi Dej, Yes..there are a few things that need a bit of work on (doing that now actually)...there is a weird triangular bit of cloud too...and the SE5a has three lower wing roundals (if you include the broken off one!...lol Quote

I thought that was the top of the upper wing. It's still a bloody good effort though. Tony Quote
