Agent how does he do It?
I can only guess he takes a picture at airport, then of model, and cuts and pastes. but the edge of the planes outline is so clean??
Must be possible to emulate this? :confused:

You need to search the net, there are some very expensive bits and pieces for you to purchase.. such as back drops and runway foils (kin expensive..) its the one photo...... then theres the lighting... and suprisingly good effects gan evidently be acheived with a fairly low spec camera.. however spending thousands on these helps as well, go to that guys homepage and he does give a brief description..

Basically yer need yer own shed..!!

.. anyway.. you are the reson diecasts have costs £500 in the last month and a bit.... if you could just wear a t shirt with a jam roundel on it I can get a clear shot...... :o

Lighting is the key. still saving for a studio set. Kin expensive. Circa £250 notes minimum. ( thats about what that lot in the cabinet cost :p ) well, that, or 10+ liberators :D

Yes I know! Good thing is Digital has a much better depth of field than 35mm. Was doing 35mm model piccies ages ago, but you couldn't get the whole of a britannia in focus. Tried: wide angle, Tele, Macro. Had (still have) 18-28, 28-70, 70-300, 70-210, 400, 100mm 1:1 macro.! Sussed the other guys photos. Have an idea how to do it. ;)
