Hello there fellow simmers! Yea, it's me again, and I'm back with some shots of the BE-e-autiful F-16. I'll being doing a series of screenshots, I hope you'll all keep up to date on them!

Here's a few shots of for a bit of a starter, enjoy!


Here I am, just after leaving my parking space.



Here's a different view for a change, a top view of the bird.



Getting closer to runway... still behind that 747.



Lining up on the runway, waiting for that 747 to leave airspace. Yes, that bright dot up in the sky IS the 747.



Finally I get the go-ahead to take off, and here I am with the wheels just inches off the ground.



After raising the gear and gaining altitude, I take the first arial turn of the flight.


Stay tuned for more!

Hi Brian,

Firstly, nice work, can't wait to see your second batch
Secondly, what prog do you use?
I've tried to get the exhaust heat effect right, but it always looks cr*p

A couple of tips would be great

Cheers mate,

Carl out.....

P.S. Love the canopy glare in the last shot

Nice shots, but IMO, the heat haze and glare is a bit overdone.

Hey Carl, I used PS7. I use the Lasso tool to mark the areas that I'm going to blur, then I use the Ripple tool in the Filter dropbox. Afterwards, I use the Gaussion blur tool. Then, after that, I use manual blur tool to smooth out the blurred area. I hope I didn't make it too confusing for ya!

Later Days!

Nice edits.  8)

I think the heat haze would look slightly better if it was a bit away from the engine instead of coming out of it. IMO
