F-18 "Hornet"

Postby Ziggy » Sun Feb 05, 2012 2:35 pm

The F-18 screenshot was originally intended to be my entry in this month's competition, however it was brought to my attention that this particular livery was in fact CS "payware" and not part of the F-18 package that came with MS Acceleration. Mea culpa guys, I'm really embarrassed over the oversight. Inasmuch as I really liked the screenshot, I decided to do a full edit on the AC and married it up with a photographic BG. Hope this edit works as well for you as it does for me. Thanks for looking, your comments are always appreciated.............. Ziggy  Image

Thanks mate, I'm glad you like it. Unfortunately, I think my hay days are a thing of the past. I'm still recovering from a stroke that really screwed up my hand-eye coordination. What use to take minutes can now take hours. These days I edit more for therapy than relaxation. Thanks again for your most gracious comment........... Ziggy

Thanks Andy, now that's one of the nicest compliments I've had to-date. FYI the original is 1920x1200 and weighs in at about 1 mb in JPEG format. If your interested I'd be happy to send you a copy, just PM me your e-mail address.......Ziggy
