New Air Art - 3/1/2016 6:37:21 AM

Status: offline 		Tried my hand this evening at creating my own original air art which I hope will blend in well with Cathartes' original AE air art. I think it came out pretty good so I’m going to try more of them eventually. Unlike my previous air art this is not just a cut, paste and shrink job created from another artists finished product. Rather I created it using a black and white line drawing which I fleshed out. I believe this is similar to the method Cathartes’ used on his plane sides. I believe he started with line drawings for his creations.

Below will be a running preview of all the air art I create using this method. In following posts I’ll attach the actual game files for DL.

Hi Paragigmblue, I haven't forgotten. Working on D-520 now. I have the side complete. Still need to work on the tops. I'll probably have to finish tomorrow as I'm about to leave.

That's gorgeous Gary, thank you.

Would you mind if I suggested a few others for Focus Pacific? I don't want to impose.

Thanks for the feedback. I looked closer and think I had the colors on the emblems a little off as well. How do these look, the ones that say "after"?
