Uhm, This is as far you can get from art, but I was practising photorealism, I added a noise filter that made the image look even more realistic, that's why there are small dots all over the image...
It's a JAS 39 B Gripen aircraft...it's the new swedish multirole fighter from saab, weighs only 8 tons, very cheap to maintain,

yay, vem kan flyga med jas gripen lalala

looks great, but there's some small perspective glithes that take away from the realism (cockpit supports/whatever those things are that hold the glass-part there, especially the front one, and the middle sidewinder in the left wing seems a bit off (outermost pylon, not the wingtip one))

and noise just makes it look scanned ...heh

Personaly I think your opnion of the mistakes in this plane kig are way off and have no bases of reality..just my opnion..what color is the sky in your world anyways?

Ben Barker · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2001 12:05 am

OMG dude. You've just come out of nowhere. I can't believe how good you are for how young you are.

That is incredible.

TheMilkMan · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2001 12:14 am

The real art isn't in the plane itself..the real art is in the smiley face on the side of the cockpit

milkman... hmm captain!... In my opinion this is not supposed to be a smiley... it's some kind of military sign... saw it several times... that are 3 triangles there in the circle, if I'm right.

I forgot to say that I used a photo reference, of course!

janne · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2001 10:44 am

looking real but something is off in that cockpit. sorry, i don't have any advice how to fix it... hmm, perhaps there is too much going on in it? i mean maybe you have tried to define it too well or something...

something i really enjoy in your pics (other than those great values) is that you seem to have a really strong illusion of perspective going on... you draw a lot of guidelines, right?

They JPG compression is probably exaggerating the noise.
