Thanks DB.... And I know u love it Terry, its ok....

Does anyone else think my top 6 pics arent bright enough, or alittle too dark??? Maybe my monitor is off...

Judges, do the pics need to be brightened/retaken??? Its no big deal to re-do the shots now that I got it figured out.... Same shots better lighting required???

 

[GrauGeist]

I think the exposure of the photos are dead-on...the last (10th) photo looks just a bit on the little side compared to the others, but still a good image...

 

[Njaco]

Dan, absolutely frickin' *$#@***#!! I love the pitting effect on the cockpit braces.

 

[lesofprimus]

Muchos Gracias fellas.....

 

[Heinz]

So where's the model all I'm seeing is a real D9?

 

[Airframes]

The pics are fine, brightness wise Dan. They are, however, just a wee touch on the large side, unless there's something wrong with my monitor.

 

[Catch22]

They're certainly large, but fine on my monitor. What's your resolution set to Terry?

 

[Airframes]

It's not that Cory. The forum 'page' is OK on my monitor, but, with Dan's last pics, I have to use the (forum) Left-Right shift keys, just a bit, to see side to side of the pics. In other words, the wallpaper-like backdrop of the forum page is still there, but the pics 'overlap' (out of sight) the beige coloured message panel, if you understand what I mean. Not a major problem, but it is easier to view pics if they're 'in the frame' as it were.

 

[lesofprimus]

Yea, I made the pics 1100x825 to get the maximum detail... I can shrink em up to 1024x768 no problem, if u guys think theres enough light to show the detail.....

 

[Airframes]

Yep, no problem with the lighting etc Dan. Even around 800x600 would be fine mate, thanks.
Would others please note the above; it's not a huge problem, but it does make it easier to view, when confronted with somewhere in the region of 150 images, or more, not having to scan back and forward, up and down.
Thanks guys!

 

[lesofprimus]

Resized the pics, changed the last one around..... Size OK now Terry????

 

[Airframes]

That's fine Dan, thanks.

 

[lesofprimus]

Hey guys, changed out the last pic, again..... The other one just didnt sit right with the other shots....

 

[Wayne Little]

Er....should we allow this picture changing bizzo to take place fellow Judges!

 

[Airframes]

As I didn't fancy a Herring in the face, I told Dan it was OK!
In general, if anyone feels they have better pics to post for the final entry pics, please contact one of the judges first, but it should be OK, to a point.
However, please note that once the entry is marked 'Finished', no further work or additions/modifications to the model are allowed, until after judging and the announcement of the results.
Only submit new pics if you feel they are of better quality/size than originally submitted.
Thanks for your co-operation.
Terry.

 

[lesofprimus]

Great job. I am planning to do a print of a profile of this same aircraft Red 1 of the Galland circus.
