Thanks Cardinalius for the encouragement.
I dabbled when I was alot younger. I have always loved aircraft profiles,
but was never talented enough to create the kind of thing I see here.
As time passed..my artist bent..faded away. I only really started to dabble
with art again to create graphics for my website.
But as it's all self taught from scratch..the process of creating art is very time consuming. Without knowing how to create certain effects I was, am , after, I have to spend alot of time just trying to find out WHERE in the graphics program the tool is..and then how to use it!..then try to use it to create what I am, was, after!. It does at times get to the point where I just want to scream at my own inability to do ANYTHING!.
I'm sure those here who are creating such works, have a better understanding of how to use their graphics programs, than I do mine.
Even those who are trying to create profiles for the first time seem to already have a grasp of computer graphical art..which helps!
My own graphical skills are very basic..so just even making a start is..frustrating to say the lease.
The program I use to create the "art" for my site is Paintshop Pro 7.
I know its getting on..but i have tried the newer versions, but frankly
they WAY! to complex to use..I do have an old version of PhotoShop..v4.0.LE
which came with an old Mac I brought some years ago..never used it.
Tutorials written for PhotoShop..which most here are, and others Ive seen, do not always translate well to Paintshop.
Plus, my conscentration has wained, due to stress brought on from my arthritis.
Anyway...lets not wander.. Nice stuff there Cardinalius. Love the "Remove Before Flight" tags...very nice detail touch. I can see you have persevered,and it's payed off!....Respect! .
Thanks for posting. Your very welcome to pass on your experiences and talent. It will be appreciated.
