Well finally got the cameras out and went outside,get some decent lighting and had a play..

These were bought of the Bay sometime ago and have only just gotten around to taking a photo or two.

These are wooden and very light... they are also way out of my price bracket as they want about $299 for each of these.. :eek:

In some ways they are very crude, the flaps are mere black lines on the wing, then you impail yourself on a couple of probes on the SAA 747's nose.. the BA 747 is festooned with wire spikes on the wingtip. :confused:

but overall they are very scrummy.. just do not have the weight of an Inflight...

So theres a BA 747 Cargo.. An SAA 747-SP and a UAE 747-SP ...

Thanks...One day I will have to spend some serious money on a camera and lighting.... but shooting in daylight helps and Micrographx Picture Publisher 7 (thats a free one - think they are up to about edition 12 now..)

Anyway... just to show how much of it is photo and how much is compooter... a before and after shot.. and the forum dont let you post silly sized piccies so its a delicate balance, most of these are about 25 KB

Also thing to remember is that 1/200 is a hell of a lot smaller than 1/72...

Hey ho.. done nothing else today... and its nearly 2 pm..

No tarmac, ground crew or vehicles Agent? :D

Good shots... I agree, outside on a good day is great for photographs, but a grey day like today and I see what you mean. Also get that... PSP9 for me! :)

Actually today not to bad cos the light is diffused... too much sunshine and you get too many shadows, reflections etc etc...

What I need is some lighting somewhere to shoot em..and to spend hundreds on a camera.. :D

Aint as sophisticated as having a tripod... all hand held... at 1/30/60/125th and max on the f stop.. Agent on a limited budjet..

Also I am stuck on Picture Publisher 7... I can use that.. some of this other 'pro' stuff I dont know where to start...
