my first profile :)

[dragan_mig31]

Here is my first ever profile.This is the first time I use PS and corel draw.I used corel draw to make the panel lines and the whole shape in just 2 hours.Than I used PS cs5 to paint the aircraft.I have never used such software before.I still have much to learn.Now I would like to ask something.I simply have no idea how to make the weathering of the aircraft.I already added a little filter on the sand and light green layers and I don't really like the final result.It is a little messy.I followed Srecko's tutorial for basic ilustration but still I can not quite understand the thing about the shadows light and weathering.For now I add this pic of the unfinished profile.

Happy new year to all of you.

You are incredible     , Happy New Year to

I am impressed.
For the first time is more than excellent.
And I thought to start to draw a profile, to practice. But I think that it will remain for my summer holiday, when I have more time. We will see how this will turn out!

You forgot one important thing, and that the signature or watermark.
That you have to come up with.

Ps.Happy new year!

Thanks guys I am still learning this.Now lets wait for the ultimate master of profiles No.1 and his comment

Excellent fro the very start and I think that I have to rework my instruction about illustrating in PS...

[dragan_mig31]

Thanks No.1.Any suggestions about the shadows and light on the AC?

[No.1]

You have to do them in regards to the real plane. First make vertical, then fuselage, engine and finally wing and horizontal tail

[dragan_mig31]

I'll try to do this using your instructions in the tutorial.I may have made a slight mistake during the build proces.I only painted the wing as a different selection.the rest is a single selection using layers for each color.

This can be rework with easy, don't worry

[dragan_mig31]

I managed to tone the colors a little bit more.I added the markings and all I have to do now is to draw all of the service markings and than I could go to the shading and some shadows making.

This is a good start, keep going. You will learn as you go along.
