Brian P: Fightertown Decals Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I posted these in the VFdecals forum, but wanted to share them here as well. Victory 101 was built in 4 days from opening the box to final weathering. There were a few modifications and upgrades to the kit, but it's mostly OOB. OF course, VFdecals great VF-103 Final Cruise sheet was used. -brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brian P: Fightertown Decals Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 Cool, thanks Mike! My photoshop skills are really basic. Pretty much crop, resize and save. thanks, brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel_B Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Fantastic pix--love the lighting :unsure: ! Did you take 'em indoors against a fake backdrop, or go outside and shoot it against the actual sky? Daniel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian P: Fightertown Decals Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 The pictures were shot outdoors against a 10x5foot translight of the sky and ocean I had leftover from a movie. It's basically a giant photo printed on a big viny sheet but the great thing is it doesn't have reflections on it from when you put light on it. I just threw it up and used available light. Would like to try and actually light it but just didn't have time to put up a lighting rig. I may have to send Mike more pictures and have him do some more cool photoshop stuff... thanks, brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie Cheetah Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 :) Pretty darn impressive for a few days work. Hats off to you buddy! Even in the first, un photoshopped picture I thought I was looking at the real deal. Well done on all counts! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
