The familiar sight

Thanks Sean for hooking me up with this one.  I see this bird over my house almost daily. The author got this paint perfect, and the sound of this beast is spot on. 8-)


Background image is Dayton, Ohio from Google Earth. ;)

I don't usually post edited screenies, but I do use photoshop frequently, and I use the same method as Shane, it takes some tedious work using the eraser, but I find it to be the easiest, just pop a Jolly Rancher or some Sun Flower seeds in, and get to work, the results are rewarding. Remember to stop frequently so if you screw up you don't have as much ground to cover up when you back track  ;)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
