hi jetabout

can you draw cathay's fleet plus 747SP

No Doubt · 01-30-2004, 11:17 PM

Have you looked at jetabout's site yet? He has quite a few Cathay jets.

jetabout · 01-31-2004, 11:05 AM

The 747sp sounds interesting. As for the fleet, here's one I had done before.

And thanks ND for the help.

Jetbout how do you make your aircraft. They are so mice. If you have any tips PLEASE tell me.
Thanks

If I am not mistaken Jetabout draws all of his templaes just like most of the expert people here do.

aznichiro115 · 01-31-2004, 10:19 PM

but where are the 777-300 and 340-300?

i'm really enjoy your cathay drawings it be cool if your draw alot more

Thanks McLaren and AZNIchiro.

FDX is right, I go through the same process as everybody else here. What I usually do to start is look for an illustrations to trace. Then I go through (thousands!!!) of photographs to check for accuracy and add details. The only exception is my B-717 template which is traced from a photograph. I'm thinking of adding a links page so you can see which my resources are as well as an explanation on how I made these images.

Anyway, updates on my page plus this new birdie. AZNIchiro, I will do more Cathays as I go along. I am now still in the process of re-rendering old designs, though I do try to slip in a new design here and there, so bear with me.

McLaren3465 · 02-01-2004, 12:38 PM

How do you paint the aircraft so nice and smooth

Alitalia744 · 02-01-2004, 02:51 PM

JetAbout,

great job! Please treat me with some Alitalia's when you have a chance

Hehe

continue the great work.

aznichiro115 · 02-04-2004, 11:09 PM

jetabout do you mind if i use your planes as a backround or templet

FEDEXL1011 · 02-05-2004, 05:51 AM

Just from recent discussions most people do not mind if you use their drawins or templates. But as you did ask first and if yes then make sure to give credit to the person that drew the original.

jetabout · 02-05-2004, 12:33 PM

Thx FDX.

AZN:
Yes, it's fine. Good of you to ask first. Good luck with it. I suggest using mye earlier works (no shading, less hassle)

McLaren:
I'm not sure what you mean by smooth. If you mean the shading, then that's using the drawing program's feature. I happen to use Corel. Otherwise, the smooth line comes when I 'translate' the image to JPG or GIF formats.
