With a new movie about to be released...I guess the force in strong. Congrats on the Deluxe edition Dangerous Waters... I'm sure you'll enjoy it. <C> Fates

Can I get this one?

It is great stuff. These guys love to manipulate the screenshot to appear as if it were taken by an actual person using a camera with film and make it as real as possible, or like someone sat down and used oils or watercolors to paint it by hand. I absolutely love it. Check out: http://www.ScreenshotArt.com <C> Fates

Gotta love the humor

Great pic. Next time your at an airshow, take a roll of black and white pics, 35mm. Have it developed on color paper at any local shop and you'll get a perfect sepia tone just like you see here. However, I've recently discovered that my new digital camera has a sepia tone setting....and tosses all that out the window. Fates

Guess I was somewhat right. The remake reminded me somewhat of a copyneg produced from an original. This is when the orginal print, as you posted, is put up on a board and professionaly photographed to remake a negative that's been long lost. When you do that, the colors will stray a bit and look a little washed out, but the biggest problem is in the contrast. Brights get brighter....darks get darker. Thus, your version looks like a copyneg print of an original....and very well done I might add. Even putting in the reflection of the rudder in the puddle...nice touch.! Cheers~ Fates

Excellent as always, but if I may add a few comments.... The lighting seems to be a little off. I mean there is a huge bright spot in front of the picture, and this is a polished aluminum aircraft. I thought that either this area of light needed to be dimmed, or other parts of the pic lightened. However, if an evening pic, it could explain a flash photo, but then the aircraft shadowing would change dramatically. I also noticed that the canopy must have been almost completely remade to incorporate the new tree line background. Judging from your lighting effects, I would have suspected a pretty good glare off the canopy...this may have helped when creating the background a little easiser.

Can you name this sim? <C> Fates

I thought about dropping the 800x becuase I just can't imagine that many people using that reosultion anymore. If there's enough people that want it, I'll put one up. <C> Fates

Hey There! I'm glad to hear the feedback... I've always enjoyed doin them.. Cheer~ Fates

I think the biggest flaw that they realized with the A-9 was the placement of it's engines. The A-9's engines are low, and not covered from small arms fire and other atrillery. The A-10 put its quiet fan engines in a position where their intakes are somewhat proteted by the wings themselves. To me this is a huge benefit Fates

Those are illegal in the State of Indiana......lol

I'll work on a "catch all" category for various other games as well ....

I've added this category under the SF/WOV section. There currently is a similar category for the LOMAC section. If there are any other request I'll be happy to get to them! Thanx <C> Fates

Sweet! I'm having Pearl Harbor: The Movie Flashbacks....great work...I like the posting of the progress shots! <C> Fates
