Wow. I concur, the paint sceme is really unique. I don’t think I’ve seen it before. I’m still waiting for the photoshopped pic to load (the wonders of dial-up), but from what I’ve seen it’s another A+ model!
I’ve worked with photoshop a little at school, and I really enjoy it. I’d like to get better at it, for this reason.
Wait, there it is. It looks great! (One question- What’s next on the table?)
Thank you emo07, Rick, Brian, Thad, trowlfazz, and Lucien !
emo, trowlfazz and Lucien - you may have missed my post of the finished bird, with color pics. You can find it here: http://www.finescale.com/fsm/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=36349
The scheme is for an Ar 234B-2 of 9/KG 76, in winter camo. I have a pic of the left side of the actual aircraft that I’ll post (gotta find it first !).
Cool pic Pix! Looks like a lot of flaps for take off though.[:)] Seriously though, very neat effect you created…I can almost hear the rumble of the JATO packs!
The RATO’s smoke came from a magazine pic of an aircraft (can’t remember what kind - it’s my “smoke effect” pic) taking off using RATOs. I figured that it was appropriate.
I originally wanted to have the aircraft shown during takeoff from the front, but I didn’t have any good background pics for that. This one was taken in the town where I live, looking toward my house !
