It's times like this that I really miss the clapping smiley. ;)


This shot is awesome.  Would have been better if you had used the Topgun 'Mig-28' ,(it's here at Simviation  ;) ), but still an excellent idea, and done nicely. 8-)


Good luck! :)

Thanks for the kind comments, Shane - appreciated, mate! If you dig into the making of the film, Top Gun, you'll find that the planes used in the film to simulate the MiGs are Northrop F-5E Tiger IIs. Soooo... I downloaded the Tiger and repainted it! Hence the absence of the (non-existant!!) MiG 28 and the appearance of the much maligned Northrop Tiger....

Right, but there is an F-5 painted as the Top Gun Mig-28.

Thanks for the HU, Shane - yep, she looks good! I'll down-load and give the T-38 a try.
