Big words confuse us flat artists, looking good though the highlight on the pod inside the paveway looks flat sided, is the real thing?

Not really getting what you mean inky

I think it is possibly the highlight being so wide and then cutting out instead of bleeding out that to me (and I could be wrong) makes it look a bit flat sided. Can you reduce the height of the highlight and bleed in the basic shading a bit more to round it out?

Hope that makes sense.

Ok are you talking about the droptank?

[Supah]

Well here is something I have been working on recently that I can show!



It is going to hang under my F-16's though it can be used on a lot of contemporary aircraft. The highlights on the warhead are a bit weak at the moment because I want to weather the actual warhead, they usually look quite beaten up compared to the grey guidance kit. Once I have done the weathering I will add better highlights to that part so I can make sure the highlights don't mess with the weahtering.

And here it is on a jet,



The jet and the JDAM still need work

And if you are doing a DEAD loadout you might as well do a SEAD one too;

Guess the subtype?

No parachute housing but enlarged horizontal tail. Block 15?
The bump on the base of the vertical tail... have seen it, not sure what from.
