Hey Jetabout..

As You dont have an Email access. So I am going to ask you that.

I like the MD-11 aircraft that your graphic offers as well as CraigH's graphic of aircrafts. Does it include such as 727, 747, 757,767, L-1011, DC-8,9,10 and of course MD-11?

Is it easy to work on? (I mean to enjoy the crayoning on the computer.)

How much will it cost to get the materials? (software) or is there any free downloads? The last time people like CraigH and DrSC once told us that it cost as much somewhere $400-800 range to get just software to be able to enjoy artistic or graphics like yall are enjoying. I really want to enjoy doing it. I do have art skills and want to use it. Expensive materials, No thanks. Maybe today things have changed than it was two years ago and things go much cheaper?

We once done from such as Photoshop stuff and it is hard to work with it. It looks much "fake" looking and aint interest to further pursue on that. I like the similar one that your works.

Anyone else feel free to share that issue. Please.

Feel free to Email me at jjohnson1837@comcast.net to let me know where cheap buy.

Many Thanks.

Well, I'm afraid I cannot really help you guys. I work with Corel Draw and though mine is not the most professional version, it still cost a pretty penny, a VERY PRETTY one. Not as expensives as what Craig quoted, but still. If this is only for a hobby, then it is an expensive one. However, I got mine also for my work, which justifies the price I had to pay. Perhaps if you know someone (who knows someone) who works with/has design programs in their comp, they may be able to help you. I have no idea where you can get these programs for very little money. Perhaps second hand comp stores? Just guessing there. One thing for sure, there is no place where you can download such program for free. The programs are way too complicated and expensive to make. Oh, and I don't think these program will become that much cheaper, not if you buy it new.

As far as templates, we all make our own. It's a basic illustration program and not made specifically for airplane illustrations. That means it does not come with DC 10s or other. We just have to start from scratch and make the templates, which is the most time consuming part. That's why they all look slightly different. Like our signature.

So, I'm sorry to be of no help. If anyone else know something better, then please chime in. An if I find out something' I'll let you know.
