  6. Toad,
    as to how, well it was done on photoshop elements. I tend to work with thin "washes" of colour, eg. the brush tool with 5-50% opacity. Also, I think real aircraft pics are often more blurred than model pics, so occsionally use the blur tool. The background is a conventional picture worked over with "smudge" tool, which was also used to create the zoom effect on the wings. I never use the pencil tool, as it gives too crisp an outline. I use the "clone" tool a lot to go round the edge of the craft superimposed onto the background.

    Hope that answers it!

  8. Um ... I was with you up to "it was done on photoshop elements" ... (giggles)

    But, thank you for trying to explain it to a non-arty person. (smiles)
