If anybody has read my blog, you'll know my plight.  So I thought I'd share my first phpto manipulation job. Just a simple cut out and layer, no exhaust blur etc, but it's a start ! I can't wait to add more realism to some of my builds. It will defo be motivation to finish some of my never ending projects ! Hope you like it, enjoy !

Nice! As a fine.tuning measure, though, the model could take some color adjustment, it looks very yellow-ish. That's probably the result of using standard artificial lighting, which tends to be "warm". Daylight lamps help a lot, but software helps (Gimp freeware, I assume?), too.  ;)

Looks like a USAF flypast going by underneath it.

And it seems they need USN top cover.............  ;D ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

You have to appreciate tips from the master ! lol. Cheers ! Yes, Gimp 2.10.22 For sure I have alot to learn. I didn't manipulate anything, just learning how to overlay an image. It will be fun ( and frustrating as f ) to keep playing and learning !
