Ugly duckling

[Clint Mitchell]

Nice work Arthur, Just one tiny adjustment if I may? The stitches on the fabric look as if they are floating above the canvas. I presume this is due to the old 2 pixel right - 2 pixel down drop shadow effect? Shift the shadows over to the left more so that they touch the stitch. That way they will not look like the stitches drop shadows.

And to think we went on to create such classic beauties as the Spitfire, Vulcan, and Harrier.....

Thanks Clint!
I know about it. Fortunately, it can be seen only at high magnification.
Next time I will give more attention.

Never seen this plane before...really weird looking!
I would like to see it with crew figures on...
It would pronounce the weirdness.

Nice work Arthur!

Hey Arthur, just looking at this again, if you want to get picky; Check the vertical fin/stabilizer, it looks a little too fat. Take a look at the wheel discs, the spoke impressions look too linear and maybe not the correct pattern. And take a look at the foot step in the roundel. The white outlines work good on the silver but they stand out on the blue. That's where you can vary your opacity or try soft light of something.
Also the stitching thing Mitch mentioned.
BIG FUN on this profile!

Ya gotta love the built in ladder!

Yes, I understand. I lost the original drawing of a computer crash, it will only keep this jepeg. It for I shan't repair. But in the future I will certainly follow thy advice.
Still thank you!
