Spudknocker Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Hey CA! Does anyone know of any websites to look at that would have bigger/high res South African Border War photographs that could work for Menu screens? Google Image search only comes up with very tiny images which are no good for menu screens Ive found some bigger photos on the official SAAF website but these are of static museum aircraft and very few period shots taken in the '65-89 period. Do people mind having in Game screen shots as the background of the menus? I know that the "Modern Warfare" campaigns use these... Quote
skyfly Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 here are a few color photographs of high resolution that were taken during the war https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ce/SAAF_Mirage_F1CZ_1979_(6122300843).jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d5/49/49/d5494931fd79a3a3f90e60b4dead918c.jpg Much more like those are available at the following web address: http://kplanes.tumblr.com/post/132232389950/k-planes-episode-87-die-kaplyn At that site there are some good wartime color photos there of aircraft on the flight line, on sortie, and as wrecks on the ground I also have some PDFs with a handful of good color photos which I can send, but all my print books on the Border War's aerial element only have photos in black and white 1 Quote

skyfly Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Awesome thanks for the suggestions sky fly! Full border war install coming soon! Below are links to the PDFs I mentioned ealier. One is a scan of an old SADF brochure that has some good color photos of SAAF aircraft and ground crew along with photos from other SADF service branches. The other is a scan of an old Osprey book on Mirage IIIs. It has a few photos of SAAF Mirage IIIs in flight, but there is a really bad dot matrix effect going on with the scan that makes all the color photos look weird https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8FHvkpKTJSKenVFeWpvNUkwTVE https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8FHvkpKTJSKMnYweDBrLTNHckU 1 Quote
