Here is my favourite subject: AB-212 /UH-1N.

These artworks depict Italian Navy's Huey in ASW AS role, and in ISAF "colors" in Afghanistan.

The other one is an Iranian Navy's I.R.I.NA AB-212 with AS-12 guided missile.

This one is my favourite color schema. There is still lack of vertical antenna.

Very nice and interesting colour schemes. Not too sure about the use of photos for the detail bits (front windows) as it looks a bit odd and fuzzy.

Oh Skyrider,

I will take it as compliment instead: no any photo is used!! All is from CorelDraw heavily "photoshopped" with small filter effects and lots lots of layers! As well as light bulbs too ;-)

The only image is the gunner man in the door.

It does look strangely fuzzy compared to the rest though.

The fuzzy effect is a personal choice. The lower glass is very thick and bubbled. The view effect should be slightly fuzzy....but this is just a graphic point of view. The other matter is more serious in a way: I am DALTONIC and hardly can see red color through greys or blue. I help myself with pickers and Pantone, but as you can see sometimes fail. This is a malediction for an illustrator: like a surgical doctor with trembling hand! :eek:

Thanks for your help anyway! :D
