Hey man- thats much better. By the way- have you seen the topic "Illustration basic technique"? You have there much more info about color profiles creating. Also one point- I have enlarge your color profile and note teeting shape of the color area. This mean that you have used magic wand for selection. Whenever you can use pen for making path and then convert into the selection. Most precise and most versatile tool!!!

Hi Santyno,
very nice material in your first post!!! Basic drawings are excellent done in vector and it look good as final color
profiles. But I am aware about the illumination you have arround the panels and the shapes on the profile. How
this happen and how you make selection during your work on profile? Also note that underwing cross is not
curved to fit the airfoil curvature.
In general I like this profiles but if you change all of this details it willl became master work... just details.
And here you are details about the weaknest point of many of illustrator- how to make curved object.
Object which have to be curved must be alone in layer. Then you hold on keyboard Ctrl and press T. This is
shortcut for transformation object. You will at once note square arround your object. Then you have to switch
into the warp mode and this will be done by press on the mesh icon in task bar in Photoshop CS2. Look at the
image attached. Then you will note that square arround the object is changed into the mesh. This is live object
now!! All you have to do is to click on the points or mesh line and to pull it until you get desirable shape.
Thats it
