What's the deal James? Are you saying the pilot wouldn't even drop that right wing and give you a thumbs-up? Not cool

Straight out of "The 'Nam" .. Nice conversion Andy!

(Might clone out the C-130 tails though.  Just a thought)

[MuseumAndy]

Thanks Jay!  Good point about the C-130 tails, I didn't even notice them!  This would be a good time to work on my cloning technique.  I am always looking for constructive criticism.

[Jay Beckman]

Looks like maybe you have enough room to just pull the crop in on that side.  Might be left with just a little "tail nub" to clean up...

[MuseumAndy]

I was thinking the same thing, just like this.

Perfecto!

[Joe Copalman]

I like the crop, but it also kills the Danang-in-1970 vibe of the original.

Actually, looks like Ubon had FT-coded Spectres and a ton of F-4Es in the 69-70 timeframe, so aside from the Tyndall tailcode and squadron markings, it might have been a semi-convincing "vintage" shot.
