Great post processing Ailantd!

If I had to make one comment though, it's that the narrow depth of field that you've chosen and the high viewing angle makes the plane look like a model in a diorama. If the background was more in focus, and if the "camera" was lower to the ground, it would be even more believable.

I Know, but I really like that diorama effect XD

I really like those colours Ailantd, and the depth of field effect, and the use of the shadows, and the...and the...lol

I must say though I'm not really seeing them as photo's, but more like paintings, which is meant to be a compliment. The most believably photographic shots for me are shots six and seven. If I ignore the trees, which I didn't even notice at first, the plane in those two shots looks like a toy left on the ground, which is a pretty neat effect imo.

Anyway, I hope you don't mind me giving you these impressions of your pictures. I just came here to post some of my own and don't really feel like doing so now, having seen yours. But each to their own I guess, we can't all be aces or artists. I just like playing around with this image-manipulation stuff.

These are all frame grabs out of a video-editor, except for the last one, which also went through a photo-editing program.

These B&W shots reminded me of something taken from a photo-copied book.


While I thought this version looked painted, or coloured-in with kid's marker-pens.


I thought this one looked like an image from an animated cartoon.


And this one even more so.


This one needs some kind of dot-pattern/rasterization effect to make it look more like an image from a comic-book, but I think the colours are there.


And this is a screenshot taken of the new shinier planes after the latest patch
