Outstanding! I like what you did with the focus on the aircraft and foreground, instead of the backround.

Thanks gents. I hadn't seen many P39 shots, so I thought I'd try one.   :salute

Really nice work, BMathis. Almost looks real. What is that plane BTW? I don't think I've ever seen one in this game.  :D

Very nice work on Eloise BMathis.  For what it's worth, Eloise was the P39 of an old Airwarrior buddy of some of us, Earl Miller.  Fencer did the skin to honor Earl.  He flew 250 combat missions in the MTO with the 345th FS, 350th FG in P39s and later P47Ds where he earned the DFC and Silver Star flying ground attack.

Here's Eloise, named for Earl's sister, over Tunisia


And another shot of her on the ground.  I'll send this along to Earl. I'm sure he'll enjoy it.

Outstanding! I like what you did with the focus on the aircraft and foreground, instead of the backround.

Looks like forced perspective.  Objects in the "front" are crisp and clear and the trees in the background are out of focus.

I think it gives the picture a 3-D quality.

Totally forgot about this one. I found it in some old files, and messed around some more.  Thanks for the comments gents.  :salute
