Hi all! This is where I'll be posting my new profiles. You can check out my older ones in my photobucket account.

I'm still going with my Sea Harrier. Here are a few more I put together lately.

RAAF desert camo:


USAF Vietnam war:


Oh, and a big thanks to Greg for setting up this new forum for us to play in!

Cheers,

Chris

Agreed, those are gorgeous. I can't for the life of me seem to get the shading to look decent, whereas you've made it splendid...

Thanks everyone. Good to see a crown of familiar faces growing on this forum.

Agreed, those are gorgeous. I can't for the life of me seem to get the shading to look decent, whereas you've made it splendid...

Didn't happen overnight Litvyak, go back and look at some of my earlier stuff. Every time I draw in a new profile type I try to incorporate a new technique or two. It helps to start small and work your way up.

Cheers,

Chris

Good to see you here Coops. Can I give you a few ideas, can I, can I??? I have 3 for Sea Harriers: first one is "Gulf War style" desert pink, next: RAF WW2 desert scheme for Cyprus based plane during what-if 2012 no-fly zone over Syria, and last: one of italian retro camouflage, with of course italian markings.

Sounds good, just when I thought I was out of ideas! Do you have an example of the retro Italian camouflage you mean?
