not a bad effort although i think the aircraft needs to be more pixelised or distorted

Not bad, Krigl, but the aircraft still looks stuck on to be honest. It needs more contrast and it's too sharp, so it also needs more grain. Try adding some 'enlargement grain' to the ship.

Thanks CSM and Sytse! Very useful to hear - when something doesn't look quite right, but you don't know why, it's good to get advice. Where can I find 'enlargement grain' ?

Thanks Sytse! You're very kind! I'll give it a go shortly...


Okay, here it is - you have a newer version of  PS than me, (I'm using PS7) and I can't find the
options you mentioned. But I tried adding more fuzz and contrast anyway.... is it an improvement?

Thanks, Krigl

That's amazing! Maybe just a little gaussian blur on the ship and the pic could be a bt lighter.

How's this? Mild gaussian, a gradient and lighter... I can't make it look any better... :-[

Sytse, I've just done some composites using your tutorial, and I'm pretty pleased with them. I'm no Banana Bob, but my edits have improved no end. Thanks a lot  for your time, patience and expertise!

Er... yes, you're right. Well, I did a gradient, so the sky's lighter and,  er, the grounds, like, well,  :-[

Well, anyway, I've learned quite a bit from doing this and I like the result  :)

Cheers for the commentary, new composites on the way!
