Military AI Works

Welcome to the December 2012 Hot Shots Competition, this months theme is Retro AI.

The competition will run for 1 month, and the winning shot will be hosted as our FB cover photo and a spot on the front page rotor for one month. Rules are simple, it has to be AI and must be posted in this thread.

There's loads of seriously good Retro AI models out there now so get snapping and good luck.

Here's a few taken in FSX from me:

Very nice Dan, good luck matey.

a few from me as well

Great idea !
I've been a judge on Aviation Art competitions and have been on committees to arranged and choose the judges on others .
having one's work /screenshot judged is very hard and can be a very humbling experience . I've had works (2) shot down in Canadian competitions and then have them place very highly9includine one award) in the U.S.A. Judging is harder and sometimes involves stepping on someone's feet . The theme is Retro AI . IMHO that should include the scenery and/or background . When "placing" an A/C in a picture/screenshot ,keep in mind what's around it .In other words objects ,including other A/C shouldn't appear to be "growing" out of the subject A/C . This would include photographing A/C .I witnessed one famous photographer shoot 6 rolls of slides on ONE NYANG F-4 . Due to a huge light pole in the background that was the same grey colour as the F-4 it looked as if the pole was attached to the A/C .
Just my opinion

Here's my pounds worth......

WOW ! no DOUBLE WOW !! Really nice .

Boy, did I ever enjoy these pics. So nostalgic for me. My teen years were spent on Lincoln AFB, where the B-47's, KC-97's and some B-52's were a large part of every day and night there! General LeMay had them doing scrambles very regularly. The only time it got quiet was the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis when everything left suddenly for outlying airfields, and we all went to officers quarters to hide in the basements until the all clear. Good times! Ron

Deltadart, nice shot, could you please put us in the right direction to download those Stratojet?

Thanks, Giorgio

I think it's from a old Alphasim scenery, but not certain.
