From an editing perspecitve it looks cool, a tad grainy though...If you play around with the Hue/Lightness/Saturation you should be able to get the same effect without the grain!

I added the grain myself, I thought it looked better.

Thanks for the feedback!

I think the grain adds a nice touch. Makes the pic look older, which, correct me if Im wrong, I believe was the intent.

I like it a lot, very simple, but very effective. The effects you used could have turned out bad, but you got it just right.

I love it. Apart from the dark clouds it could easily be a photo. Cool

I blame Microsoft! Tongue

Hehe... thanks!

I didn't know the clouds where going to be that dark after editing when I took the shot. I could have brightened them up a bit though...

Forgot to say before...

I like what you did with this shot. The colors all fit and the plane has a lot of detail. The only thing I would point out, is that the airport scenery could be a little most realistic. For example the ground textures dont seem that accurate and I think the Heavy Terminal would have at least a few more buildings Grin

Other than that, great shot.

Thanks! There's a lot more buildings to the left. You just can't see 'em! Grin

I haven't experimented with 3rd party scenery fr FS2002 yet. I don't think it'll be so great anyway... I do have a lot of planes though, since my primary interest is making composites. I like to do some quick edits sometimes, just for fun.
