RE: Best scale photo!
ORIGINAL: sebo
I did notice that the ''skin'' on the wings and fuse are very smooth. Is that normal for a warbird, or any aircraft for that matter; even for a fresh one out of the hanger? No bleaching out of the top surfaces.....It is a nice picture, however.
Just a question and little things that came to my attention...not being critical.

I can't compete with Davis Hart, but here are some of my shots. Sorry I posted the wrong photos... I can't remove them now. It was my first post, so a little slack might be in order.

I agree but they will never convince me that those are full scale planes.....
There is a section for crashes and one for warbirds.....This is more of a test of ones' photo skills so as the aircraft looks real......you can't tell it from the full scale plane.
Thought I'd throw that in as a reminder.......nicemodels, though.

Great shots on this page David, wow!
Also, the Sunset De Havilland by Goose is quite nice, followed by some cool shots from Rebel Flyer.
Here's an S.E.5 that I used some tonemapping processes along with a black and white conversion.

Hi,
how about a little compromise here: If people post pictures that fit this thread and in the same post also show some, that don't, but that do show that it is actually a model, I like that contrast.After all we're in an RC forum and whileI marvel at the scle shot I also get quite curious about the model, its actual size and so on. SoI think that should be accepted. However, those posts that only showlittle convincing pictures of little convincing models I don't like. What do you think?

RE: Best scale photo!
Because now you've just lowered the standards of this thread down to where every other photo thread on RCU is. We ALREADY know that these are models, THATS ONE OF THE "POINTS" OF THIS THREAD. I already "compromised" earlier by allowing "detail" shots of the subject and that's fine...but now this?...
NO!!!
I hate to come of as a "thread nazi" and sound as if we "play by MY rules", but the "standards" of this thread are what have made it "THE" most viewed thread on RCU for YEARS now.
So... In an attempt to keep us on track...here we are AGAIN... The thread guidelines...
The whole idea behind me starting this thread was for guys (and gals) to post pictures of model airplanes that look like shots of actual aircraft. Not pictures that look like shots of models.
For the THIRD(up to about 10 times now) TIME. Can we PLEASE post pictures of models that look like pictures of REAL airplanes?
This means....
The airplane should be a scale model.
(What does this mean?) It means things like strut covers if the real plane had them. It means authentic looking struts, not music wire. It means a pilot in the cockpit if the picture is an Aeriel shot and the pilot would be viewable. ETC...ETC...
Secondly... The shot should be taken from a "believable angle",
or from how the "eye" would perceive it. I think this is self explanatory.
Detail shots are ok as long as it's of the subject being presented.
-Thanks again all,

Ps. C'mon trolls, I know you're going to post your dumb a&^ photos now... Oh, and your "flames". Just remember... You can always go start your verry own thread...

RE: Best scale photo!
Hi All,
Not wanting to get my nuts chewed off (again) - I thought I'd post some pictures I took when I first started using a DSLR - apologies about the quality, but they're about 5 years old. My cameras have improved slightly since then.
Happy New Year to all,
Neil
