... Not my entry..working on it.. Wink

The Spitfire...Voted by SimV members as the greatest aircraft of all time. Graced the skies as no other flying machine could or possibly ever will. Now it's your turn to pay tribute to this war-time legend. Your challenge, should you be able, is to take the finest screenshot you can depicting the illustrious Spitfire..... "Paint your Spitfire Masterpiece"... Any scenario.... with other aircraft in an MP session,  parked or taxiing on the ground, cutting through the sky, in a fierce blazing battle with an enemy fighter, posing at a modern day airshow... you decide the scenario. This is not a contest, take your time with this one, give this superb aircraft the best you've got. Really try hard to capture the essence of "The Spitfire" We'll put all our Spitfire screenart pics to a poll in two weeks to decide which ones should be permanently posted into our Studio V Gallery.  Smiley

Great idea Clipper, a fitting tribute! Are we only allowed to use freeware Spits?

Because it's not a competition but a "Screenart Painting" creation, you can use any Spitifire you choose. I'm sure we're going to see some magnificent work.  Smiley

krigl..

isnt that the AH SEAfire?

Post here but as clickable thumbnails only. If you prefer posting full size pics, start your own thread here at Studio V and title it "Ultimate Spitfire Screenart"


The Seafire is a Spitfire, modifies for "Sea" duty. Qualifies.. Wink

It's no big surprise that the RealAir Spitfire is dominating this tread. Truly awesome screen shots of the best virtual version of the best Spitfire of them all. Grin In fact all the shots of all the Spits are stunning. Smiley I must get some of my efforts uploaded!

A selection of Screen shots of the immortal Spitfire from my screen shot folder. No edits or anything fancy, just a bit of payware here and there.

First up a few shots of the RealAir MkXIV
...

...

...

...

...

And a few from CFS3. Some of these you’ll have seen before as some are from the monthly screen shot contest.

THE HEART and SOUL of a Spitfire is...........Death, Death and destruction. It was a purpose built to kill things, not be a graceful airshow performer, and I have attempted to show this in my shot, shown HERE.
