BAM'n'IVM Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 (edited) Managed to get a once-in-a-lifetime photo the other day... Actually, it's a photo of 64-17979 I took at Lackland AFB, with the landing gear edited out, reflections in the paint modified, and superimposed over the sky at last year's Fort Worth Alliance Airshow, with some subtle blur effects added. But I like it. Edited July 26, 2007 by BAM'n'IVM Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I like it. It works well, but I think it would be better if you cloned out the bit of cloud between the starboard engine nacelle and the fuselage. Photoshop is really a blast, isn't it. I was playing around with it and put this together for a friend who was once a Boomer on RC-135s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(I have to learn this, i've got to put some models on a tarmac too, not just hanging in space). Stephane. Stratosphere Models. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Oh yeah! I like it, especially the prospective. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used the lasso tool to copy the affected part of the fuselage, pasted that section (in this case, the entire lower fuselage and the engine inlet cones) to a new layer, and color-corrected the reflections there. Then I lined the image up with the rest of the airplane in the previous layer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BAM'n'IVM Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 That's the pole-mounted TXANG Phantom at Camp Mabry in Austin, btw. Couple of weeks after we were there they got a pole-mounted F-16...I sense an upcoming photo opportunity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
