Very impressive piece of work. The only thing for me to comment on is the brightness, a lot of the colours seem washed out, so shadows and contrasts don't appear to be as visible. Lovely angle, great image of the drop tank being released and the cartridges as the cannons are fired. Tracers appear a little too red, but toning down the brightness in the image would fix that.

Well done. IMHO making those slight changes for me would make this a worthy header contender.

PS. Don't forget to add your credits....

Did you put your rivet layer on top of your markings?

I believe what Pete means is to sign it with your signature :)
And yes, nice work mate.

That looks much better Chris. I can see the detail in the background, which I couldn't see before. Some of the more anally retentive may say there's no aileron deflection on either plane, but I think you've still done a great job.

By credits, I mean that you add your signature and also if you have used other peoples' meshes, that you state their name and their model too. It's often frustrating to have created a mesh, released it for the public and then nobody credit you for it in their images!

All content by chrisken except the background which is compliments of the Public access USAF website (mind you I had to photoshop out the F16 Aggressor Aircraft) This is a grest source for backgrounds if you want to take the time to remove the aircraft and its public domain.

Was my question utterly offensive and I just didn't realize that or why am I ignored?

Sorry ,my mistake .The rivits are on the diffused layer,not on the color layer with the markings.

Zorin: No need to take that tone. People miss things. I'm sure Chrisken didn't mean to offend by not giving you an instant reply. A little prompt would have been enough.

What tone? I'm forced to question myself and what I say because of the way people react around here. I'm always afraid of stepping on someones toes by asking even the simplest of questions.

This can't honestly be what you are after, right?

I don't believe that you intended it to sound as it did. However, I am quite thick skinned but even I found that the way in which you asked why your question as to why you had been overlooked to be quite rude and aggressive. It wasn't exactly the simplest of questions was it? The simplest of questions, would have been something along the lines of, "You seem to have overlooked my previous question, all I wanted to know was....". Instead you appear to have taken it as an insult that your question was not answered.

If you feel I have over reacted, feel free to PM me about it, or raise your concerns with an Admin (Aceman or Martoc..).

I don't believe this is worthy of bothering admins with, IMO.

Honestly, I think I need to admit I could have asked in a more polite manner. I hope you have not been offended chrisken, it was never my intention.
