Very nice, Mic!  Smiley

A few things to consider for you next image:

1) Canopy: Plexiglass should not be blue.

2) Antenna Wire: Picking up color from the paint on the vertical stab.

3) Lighting: The tail is one of the brightest areas on the left side of the fuse but the undersides of the horizontal stab and elevator are much less illuminated than the area under the wings.

That sounds like too much work for me, although a useful technique. Whenever I do wires, I do not even cut out the wire from the original image. Instead, I redraw the wire using the line tool on a new layer. Then I change the opacity of the layer to make it look realistic. Lovely edit!
(even though you already used the backround)

Hee, hee! Takes about two seconds, DF!  Wink

Your method is a good one, DF, especially if you are in the process of making the image. I mentioned the alternative because the wire is already there. If Mic saved the work in layers then he has another way to go, if he so chooses.
