Just trying my hand at Prop (rotor) spin.
I'm not really sure how to go about this, but here's one shot at it. I also put in some rotor wash of the exhaust from the jet motor.
Enjoy,
Chrisco

Maybe it's just me, but I can't see the wash at all... ::)Maybe you have a larger version, so I can see it?
For the rest: very nice pic!

It's very subtle, I didn't want to over do it and make it LOOK like it was put there. You can see it in the distortion of the clouds.

I'll tell ya what I did, but fair warning, I'm sure this ISN'T the best way.
I used the actual spinning rotors from fs9.
I cut them out of the picture, and pasted them each in their own layers using
Photoshop CS2.
Then I applied motion blur to each of them seperately.
After I posted this pic, I remembered that somewhere I have a radial blur.
After I find it, I will probably try another prop/rotor edit on another aircraft using
that. (The way I see it,
once I post it, it's done so I won't change this one)
hope that helps Alpha (and anyone else for that matter
