Good looking Sabre, but if I may suggest maybe some rivet details would add even better look for this art... :-ok

last update on the camo version...
Title: Re: Italian Sabre...
Post by: samuraj77 on July 29, 2008, 09:34:26 PM
I like the cammo look,and I haven't seen much Italian Sabres, but have you considered to add some shadows or worn-off look to the insignia and numbers? Somehow white is too clean when you see grey and green which are weathered as they should be...
I must emphasize that I am not an artist,and I am looking at your and Srecko's profiles purely as a modeler...
Keep up the great work I really enjoy watching your works  :-clap

Post by: santynus on August 01, 2008, 07:29:06 PM
thank you Wingman81 :) :-red
I need to know whitch one you prefer or look more metallic than others...  ;)
Title: Re: Italian Sabre...
Post by: Wingman81 on August 01, 2008, 07:50:04 PM
I like the second. Probably you could put some rivets on the rudder/tail area then it looks more metallic in this area.
Title: Re: Italian Sabre...
Post by: No.1 on August 01, 2008, 08:18:10 PM
Santino my friend- I told you once before to forget about black color as the effect in filter Outer Glow for the panels. In general art is much advanced but this effect is usable for the pattern for the planes in game not for the real presentation and for the color profile art.
Title: Re: Italian Sabre...
Post by: santynus on August 01, 2008, 11:41:25 PM
I try to use your suggestion Srecko...  :-think
I hope this version look better...  :-wave
Title: Re: Italian Sabre...
Post by: No.1 on August 01, 2008, 11:46:23 PM
Yes- this is it. Now lets arrange layers. This layer with panel is under the layer with shadows? If it is not please move it under it. Go to Filter and Add drop shadow, color white, blend mode normal, distance 2 pixels, size some like that, opacity 45-75%. Then copy this layer and place it above the shadows. delete layer style [no drop shadow] and set visibility at 40%.

 :-wave
