Model Aircraft Photography

[Florian]

Thank you so much, man! The Allegiant shot was really interesting to take.

You are very welcome. By the way, how did you manage to make the stands disappear in the pictures with the Midwest and Royal Jordanian planes? That also looks amazing and so realistic. I was watching your YouTube tutorials about model airplane photography but I think you didn’t mention how to erase the stands. Or did I miss out something there?

Can't get enough of these big birds from the past.
SAS B747-238B (1:400) N4501Q from Gemini Jets 2002.

Delivered to SAS as N4501Q in 1981. Leased to Egyptair 1987-1988. Later flew for Philippine Airlines. Converted to freighter in 1998 for UPS (N523UP).

Scrapped in 2011.

Some of these edits are really nice! I gotta get into this stuff.

It is very fun! To get really good shots it does take a lot of practice though.

To erase the stand I used the Spot Heeling Tool in Photoshop to remove it. I looked through both tutorial videos I made and noticed I haven't shown how to do that yet. I'll add that video to the list of videos to make.

That’s cool, thank you so much!

I bought this from a Swedish hobby shop. The grass comes as a roll.

Very lovely model! You just cannot go wrong with the old GJ 747s!

In case you are wondering, the Vickers Viking is a Kelloggs cereal kit painted and decalled by me and it is 1/400!

That looks... Incredible! Very well done, along with some lovely models and backdrop!

Made a small diorama for a school presentation I’m doing about sustainable aviation, so all these aircraft are NEO/Max or other newer, more sustainable planes. I wish mine were as good as you guys!

Fantastic scenery, but I must say i'm impressed about that Vickers Viking! That's something I'd like to have in my cereal!
If only they had an EMB-120 Brasilia or EMB-110 Bandeirante in 1:400 too

Was going to make a new thread, but saw this existed and was hoping to revive it. I took some photos of my Dragon Wings A320 outside, these are the best ones yet!
