Let Let Let Announcment / First year- Prva godina
« on: January 23, 2006, 04:14:37 PM »
Danas se navrsilo tacno godinu dana od kada je nastao let Let Let sajt. Poceo je kao mali sajt od sest megabajta a evo danas on ima pedeset megabajta i forum. Prilicno je naraso broj strana i napisa na sajtu a sam Gulg ima oko 130 indeksiranih stranica foruma a na sajt vodi preko sedamdeset linkova sa drugih sajtova. Celu stvar sam zamislio kao "od maketara maketarima" i sve na sajtu predstavljeno na najbolji moguci nacin i onako kako ja osecam da bi godilo prosecnom ljubitelju vazduhoplovstva. Posebno se zahvaljujem svima vama koji obilazite ovaj sajt a posebno saradnicima koji su uzeli ucesce u podizanju ovog sajta.

Today is the first year annivesary of the Let Let Let web site. Begin as a small site of six MB, today it had some fifty MB and forum. Number of pages are also raised ang Google had indexed around 130 Let let Let pages and ove seventy links guide to the site. I have imagine whole thing as "from modeler to modeler" and all on the site were presented in the best possible manner and how I feel that will be nice to the aviation enthusiast. I grant thanks to all of you who are visiting my site and specialy to the contributors who take a part in building of this internet place.

Combat Warplanes / Nova boja na F-15
« on: January 21, 2006, 10:17:30 PM »
U saradnji sa Univerzitetom Misuri, rajt Paterson bazom u Ohaju, Boingom iz Sent Luisa i Deft indastrijal

Finisis razvijena je nova zastitna boja za bojenje aviona F-15. Do sada su farbari koristili osnovne boje

zasnovane na hromu a poznato je da je heksavalentni hrom kancerogen. Novi premaz bez ovog sastojka

postize istu zastitu ali je mnogo "prijateljskija" nego prethodna boja. Osim toga vise nema ni otrovnog

otpada a i osoblje ne mora vise da nosi hermeticke skafandere prilikom upotrebe ove boje. U ovom

trenutku sva odelenja koja se bave zastitom i bojenjem se spremaju na smenu materijala. Nova boja

lepsa je na izgled, laksa je za odrzavanje na terenu a i jednostavnija za ciscenje. Sve ce to doneti i

odredjenje finansijske ustede ali i smanjtit vreme rada. Do sada je 36 aviona F-15 dobilo ovu boju a od

septembra ove godine ulazi u punu upotrebu.

Senke su u posebnom sloju, zakovice u posebnom, kopce u posebnom i paneli u posebnom. Kad ih sve zavrsis onda iskljucis sve slojeve osim njih i onda pritisnes Ctrl-Shift-E i od njih napravis jedan sloj. tri piksela nije mnogo ako ti je profil lovca dug jedno 400 milimetara.

Inace batali Kvark, mislim da ga je kupio Adobe i In Dizajn postaje vodeci za grafiku i prelom. Doduse Pejdz mejker ce se jos boriti al pitanje kolko dugo.

Eh dragi moj... ja sam moderator na jednom forumu sa 100 hiljada korisnika, posla preko glave, dnevno bacim nekoliko tema, pa jos licne obaveze, pa narudzbine za inostranstvo... stvarno nemam vremena da napisem i na nasem jeziku. Zao   mi je ali tako je.

Prelom stampe i priprema grafike zastampu je skroz druga prica ali daje coveku bitnu osnovu da moze da razume neke stvari. Tako ja nisam piaso npr. da treba cesto da se snima, precica Ctrl-S, i slicne stvari jer racunam da to vec treba da se zna.

Da ne gnjavim mnogo pitaj sta god treba, tu sam.

Za tu 110 nisam siguran jer je fotograf streljan u oktobru '41 i nista nije ostalo [iako ima dve cerke...]. Profil 109 sam ja radio i imam jos par slika na kojima se vidi prisustvo vise boja na avionu. U jednom slucaju trup je ostao zelen ali su krila dobila mrlje.

Market / Four new kit- Yugoslav Kingdom
« on: January 18, 2006, 09:55:38 PM »
New resin offering from Choroszy out of Poland made in 2005:
Ikarus SM Seaplane
Just produced in August of 2005, this finely made resin kit is in new condition as it came straight from the factory, and it depicts a Royal Yugoslav Naval Air Force SM flying boat that was used fom the late 1920's to the mid-1930's before being replaced by the SiM series, and the Do-J "Wal".
This kit is a must for the Small Air Force collector, and requires one with experience to build.
I will be selling this model at a reasonable price. Purchase with confidence as my feedback suggests, and feel free to click the links above to view my other auctions which are now displayed at my Storefront. I am currently selling a CD modeling guide which will greatly enhance the building process of this fine kit. Ikarus SM Modelart CD

This conversation is gone deep out of this topic!

As I know it is not in behavior of the illustrator to provide basic info about the source drawing for it'c color profiles. The same color profile fr it self present completely new work, no matter of the base. I could said for this color profile here that it is based on my drawings and data is supplyed from the flight manual of Bf109E where the factory drawings were published. No problem to find photos of this plane for details.

When you publish your material all info provided is then public. It is recomended to any author to provide the references for it's work. I personaly do that. But I could talk only in my name, not in the name of others. If you trace my articles published in various magazines you could not that I provide references for all I do- from base material for scale drawing up to the references for color profiles. It is because I want to feed up reader with complete info.

Things are different when you supply unpublished material. Then you could be in position to place terms of use.

Find out more info at some of the Authors right Agency.

I would like to ask you to close this way of conversation and be more on the same method of art creating.

I have made couple of them and published. They became base for all the further drawings and color profile. If you thinnk that your work could be abused- don't publish it. Idea is not to keep but to share al of the knowledge for the mutual benefit. I was put many thing on my web site too and no crime was afected- even more I was allway's asked for the rights to use this materioal.

True but if you make any of changes on the same drawing this is not violation of law. This is as you could seen a pretty different then the original- so no violation here. More to say that it is not a problem to make drawing by own but matter of question is how the accurate they could be.

And what now? Go to the Layer with blue color and put it back on the 100 % opacity. Then go to the Layer panel and will se on the lower side Flatten image... press this and your illustration is finished. And now the size is much reduced.

Result is on the bottom. Hope you like it and that this short guide could help you in your own creation atempts.

Aircraft is very clead, shiny and tidy machine. Yes, but only in moment when it's leave paint and finishing facility in the aircraft factory. After testing plane is delivering to the operational unit. Under permanent stress panels are not as tight as they was, color bleeding under sun light, mechanic walk on plane, surface is detoriating, fitings and connections begin to leak, oil, fuel and various of other liquid's... in short word it's areal life. So let's bring life on illustration.

This is most interesting part of artwork. Simply you select part to part of the plane and paint something what present gas exhaust, damaged color, dirt and so on. I gues what- you need new layer for this. Used color are grey brown with various shades, ranging from pale to dark. But take attntion about the brush- it is  airbrush but in Dissolve mode and opacity range from 40 % up to 70 %. Place color stroke arond the edges. let there be dark color. Then use Smoodge tool, R from keyboard and find under pallete, and distrort the stroke to create leaks in the direction of flight. Then take again brush, take very light color and apply on the edge of the panel. Then take Blur tool and take blur on the whole section.

And this have to be done for the each part of the plane. Somewhere you will put gun blast traces, but somewhere just damaged paint. see the how the paint could be damaged on the cockpit canopy.

It's party time!!! This we have seen until now could be called anyhow but not the color illustration. Let's bring it into the real appearance.

What we need is the number of panel lines, nuts and bolts, hinge, access panel's, opening, blisters and many other thing which will give visual reality. There is a number of hard and soft object to be placed there. Hard object are:
- panel lines
- intake holes
- nuts
- bolts
- canopy glass

And the soft object is the various hightlight and shadow which illuminate each part of the plane and givig it a dimension of present object.

For the creating of the hard object use brush tool, not the airbrush, and take 3 pixel round. Opacity have to be 100 %. Color black. This is the usual tool to create all of the panels. Closed object like some holes or door, access panel is better to make first selection of the shape and then go to Edit-Stroke and take stroke path. In this manner are made all of the bolts and the nuts. Now it is the time to think about the source of light! In this color profile light is coming from front left top side. In regards to the direction of this light you should create arround the all of the hard object hightlights and shadows which give realistic visual appearance.

Now the come most important object- soft object. To create this you shold select a shape by shape on the plane and make a number of shadow and higntlights. For this purpose use airbrush tool and the opacilty should be very small. Shadow you reate with black color and opacity ranging from 9 % up to 16 % [data based on personal experience] and the hinghtlights are created with white color and double less opacity. Take a maximum care about the direction of light. One more detail- some area like the underwing are more in deep shadow and need more to be darken but some sharper and rounded parts have to be more hinghtlight. You have to practice more to learn this but also to study real obkect and to notice "game of light" on it's body.

After hard work take back all layers visible and see what did you get. Don't forget about the small details, they give important influence in the visualiation of the illustration. See for excample how the extra details are add to the tail, extra shadow under the horizontal tail and the fabric covering detail on the rudder.
