hey all. tried to make this one look a little like a painting. tell me what you think!!

any suggestions are appreciated!!

You tried to make it look likea painting huh? Well guess what bub! It does! I seriously would have thought that this was a painting. you should print it and sell it for $500 a peice.
Very Very good edit. I wish I had an editing system like everyone else.

Apparently (I myself don't edit) there is a decent freeware program called GIMP that contains all the tools you'd need to do a composite image from FS...

Wow that's quite nice.

oooh..its back...it appeared for a minute and I wrote a reply and it deleted itself

Lovely shot mate....the greys and blues go really well with each other...

The only thing IMO to work on is the canopy, which is a bit transparent for my liking

Other than that top notch stuff....maybe a gallery nomination

.mic

PS....do you have a larger version you could upload somewhere...looks like this has been compressed a bit

thanks a lot fellas!! i have one thats a little bit larger, but not by much. thanks for the suggestion i'll work on the canopy!!  ;)  

Nice work! The canopy could use some desaturation, as it is too blue IMHO and the fuel tank seems to be blurred. Apart from that I don't see any major flaws and the composition and tones are excellent!  :)

holy crap thats awsome
will you make a link to a bigger one like 1024-768

thanks a lot!!  ;D sure no problem!! i have two that are 1024 X 768, one is a little sharper than the other, so you can choose. only thing is, how can i upload it with a link i've never done it before?

thanks for the help!!

That's really good.

The canopy has been mentioned already - Take care not to loose the highlight work you have done on it. just try to get the blue sorted

john

thanks a lot jnc!! you do great work yourself especially your last two!! yes sir as soon as i know how to link to an image i'll get up the larger version with some canopy work on it!!  ;D

Very cool m8.

Excellent Chris! Mind telling us how you get that painting effect, I have been looking for a good, reliable way to do it for some time now.

thanks a lot fellas!! you got it!! there's a few ways to do it. one thing i did was to put the contrast up a little bit more than where it usually is, to help bring out all the colors. then i played around with the color balance and added some blues and a little bit of red. did the same thing with the background image, just not as much because its not the main focus of the image.  ;) then for the wingtip contrails i used an airbrush and a light opacity paint, and then smudged it a little bit to give it more of a paintbrush appearance.  

hope this helps!!  ;D  :D

To link an image just copy and paste the code liek you normally would but then delete the [img]and[/img] parts on the ends of the code and voula
