This is very good sample of the advanced color line art. Similar method is used by one illustrator from UK, can't

remember name in the moment. This is nice!!! And I like that colors are close to the real match. You have good

calibrated monitor as I can see

So in this method of camouflage color presenting you don't need to do any more. As you know this type of art

preserve all of the basic drawings outline and camouflage is apply with a minimun of the shades and highlight.

Identical as in the monochrome line art up to the '80 but in this way color is used.

Any way, you have a principal sense for the shape of object on the plane and can fight with the light direction.

From my point of view you can free go to the next step full color art. But I have to note that creating of the

basic layers in full color art need over a week per type of plane and need deep search. So when you start with

practice use some well nkown planes with a lot of images. Like this Mosquito.

I have just release color profile of one US pre war fighter and have some spare time to play with your color profile. As you can note all black outline are gone now. Only dark line is the panel lines. On the many of details are add more light and shadows. Nose is transparent. I have note that you have used brush in the dissolve mode and then blur it and effect is good. Maybe to blur some more but it depend from surface to surface and plane to plane.

One important point when you are make color profile is that you have to watch on the image of the original plane. There you can see everything you need for work. Nothing more nothing less

Thanks No.1 you asked the question before me.
Santynus, if you could do a PR version it would be great and as No.1 said, with your permission I would place it on my site with full credit to you and a link to your site if you have one, if you don't have a site, I think you should get one to display your great work.  :msn_thumbup:

Exchaust is first class work!!! Congratulation! But more practice with exhaust stain. Make few stroke with brush. Start with dark maroon and finish with pale grey. Set mode of brush dissolve and opacity 45 up to 65 %. First tsroke larger diameter and each next stroke and next color smaller diameter. Then blur it all. Set blur tool on 80%.
