Oh Totally awesome, Davinci. I love the propellers. Great realist shading.
The background is my favoirte, you did a super job on the smoke.

it could be better i mean, think of all the stick men you could throw in there to increase the blasty-ness of it :P seriously this picture is awesome, gives a nice feel to playing BF1942

Are those trees down there, or are they little green plastic army men? (lol jk :) I used to shoot plastic army men with my brothers bb guns. This is great. You should draw more here.

Those are herbs.. the rabbits were getting out of hand so they called in an air strike.

your pics are great, Dave... nicely done... but ... but... I kinda like the water/birdfeeder/seashell type stuff betterer... ;) this war stuff... ugh... but alas... like I said... NICELY DONE! :)

I like war! If I had been born a boy, I would've been a fighter pilot, or in a different time one of those women who tested the planes and got no credit for it, yeah.... Yay for war! Kill'em all and let God sort them out! ;)

edit: Oh, and I forgot to say (because I was chasing rabbits, as usual lol!) that my favorite thing about this one is the wonderful smoke. It looks real, only it's not fuzzy or blurry. It's sharp smoke!!! That's impossible! :)

Great draw! I love these kinds of pics. Too much cuteness can rot your mind...(did 'I' say that?) Anyhow...love your planes and aerial stuff. Love how the main plane came out and the smoke.

I think someone's been playing a little too much "Weapons over Normandy". I like these tho', so keep playing. i guess...

Good picture, I like it. The trees do look a little too plastic like DBA says, but it's good anyway. :0)

davincipoppalag (Apr 12, 2004)

Yea I dont like the trees alot either, now that I get a better look.I'm not sure what to do to fix them.. any thoughts?

marcello (Apr 12, 2004)

maybe you should put more detail into the close ones, if you can recognize those ones as trees, then your brain will automatically make the connection that the rest are trees as well.

davincipoppalag (Apr 12, 2004)

I was thinking along those lines. I will give that a try.. Thanks

Aubrey (Apr 13, 2004)

I love the way you draw the smoke and flames in your pictures. It's so much more dramatic than just a poof of grey smoke. And the plane and perspective are amazin!! Yeah some of the trees could use a little more detail, but not much cause afterall, how much detail can you really see in a tree from a thousand feet away..

I messed with the trees.. I like it better.. made them much smaller and darker..

xwindflyer (Apr 14, 2004)

Yes, the trees and perspective look much bwtter to me. Good job. If you had some kits to sell, this could be the cover on the box:o)..

davincipoppalag (Apr 14, 2004)

Lol I have an old Sterling Kit home of a B24J from the 60's.. I will have to look at the box and see what they have on it lol..

DeadlyBlondeArcher (edited Apr 14, 2004)

Yessir, I like this alot better. I shooooore do. :) I just love the smoke the bestest, though. :D edit: Oh, and I keep forgetting to tell you... in these plane pictures I love the way you do the propellors so that they look like they are moving... great job on that.
