There are quite a few "factory photos" and "promo photos" of real aircraft taking from this sort of lofty position. But strangely they tend to make the aircraft look somehow like a model!

How about this one as an entry in the "Best Scale Drawing" category! This is a heavily photoshop'ed image of my 1/6 scale SE5a in flight.

SDCrashmaster

Good stuff, and discussions on the 'ol thread lately. Likin' it.

abufletcher

Here's the color version of the SE5a photo. The second photo is the original as I got it from my friend. The resolution and focus are both a little suspect, but with a bit of tweaking it looks pretty good at a small size. Maybe rcphotog can have some fun with it!

The third photo shows what Neil would have gotten (with better resolution)!

I took this on Friday. My buddy's LA-7. 110" wing span with a Moki 250 radial.

Outstanding photography!

Hi David,

Superb picture of a superb looking model - great stuff! Rteminds me of Ali's LA-7 - same spec. Looked and sounded fabulous. I can't remember if I posted these pictures, if I did apologies






TTFN,

Thank guys!

Neil,

I believe that is the same modelmanufacturer from Germany. I know Ali. I usually see him fly jets over here in the states. He is a hell of a pilot.

Besides the flaps being down,I thought this one was worth adding.

Ohh that picture looks familiar, Philip Here's a couple more. I posted the "Fox 2" picture on the other Favourites thread but got very little reaction so it can go again, I think Great looking model - fabulous paint job. Its a pity the light wasn't quite so good - very low, strong winter sun tended to make everything have an orange tint to it. Good ole Photoshop



"Fox 2!"

Neil, amazing shots, Ali said you were a good photographer that's an understatement, when I have my hunter airborne we will have to arrange a get together next time your taking photos of Ali's aircraft, I have 7 of his at the moment so you will be busy this year.

NeilHutch

Hi Philip,

Ali certainly has the best toys around. I love photographing his stuff because he puts models in such great positions. I guess you'd expect that from the "best of the best!" No problem with the Hunter/photo shoot - just let me know when.

TTFN,
Neil

RodanAZ- Thumbs up, brilliant!
You've got the concept... thousands haven't.
Great to see a chopper pic and one that really captures the whole heliport environment.
A wonderful illusion.

That runway shot in the last post of the aircraft lining up for landing is also very OK IMO.

Ziroli Stuka

abufletcher

Let me help you out there. But, really, that's a very nice model and it deserves some better photos. Get down to eye level with it. And make sure there's nothing distracting in the background.
