PR Spitfire

Repaint for the Realair model . This is (i think) still flying with a french owner.
Its a shame the Contraprop dosent show up so well.

It's that old #2 voodoo again!!! Another one to add to the SP "Classics" album!

So many of my own screenshots always seem to end up looking the same ... yet SP comes up with new angles every time. I hate you

The one that could run without a gun , the ole Mk14 tho was compared with Vampires in 1946 although a later variant the Mk19 still had a place in the front in 1949 in PR .. amazing the heights these were flown at .

As always, great shots of one of my favourite aircraft.

Love the way the pilot is looking at the camera for the first one. A real Gavin shot (just the FS version)
Nicely done

Yeah ... but does he have to look quite so *smug*

Adam, he's not smug....... he's just happy he isnt flying the A2A model (sorry, that was uncalled for sarcasm)

@Al , thanks for looking .... the moving pilot just adds a bit to the shots, but you have to wait until he turns to face you, in the meantime the background can change , so the shots arent always what i want. I study Gavins work very closely , he's the master of angles and lighting.

A real Gavin shot

I liked the highlights on the first shot, but then you found some more in the second, especially the windscreen! very nice.
Right then I thought: now that's a shot Conroy should be making!
It might actually be a little dangerous, but with care may be do-able.

Thank you Charl , its a lot easier for me compared to Gavin .... i can control the whole thing , as in weather, time of day , etc . As i said, i get a lot of inspiration from his work , but i suppose i do have that "virtual" edge.
Thanks again for looking.

Think maybe quiet true using the very least expense Accufeel , wont be a Accusim Spitty .. but you also cannot get a Griffon

Will his head move around for you in slew mode? That might work
