You have my admiration, good sir.
My favorite part of that argument was when someone posted a modded CoD image with the trees just slightly darker. People were falling over themselves to post how great it looked. The trees were slightly darker and suddenly the landscape went from "cartoon" to "great". It was funny as hell.

BTW, I wasn't alone, and I didn't scrutinize every post. It wasn't necessary. All you need to do is post a WoPuke screenshot and you win a color argument every time.

funny as hell uh?...





anyone can tell any difference? it's just 10% lighten referring to the real thing, just on trees; no global filter or anything, i PS it myself.

David, ever heard about something called 'details'? no you don't seem to... how can you get along without that? you can't. now how's that for some fun?

lol i love it how i promptly diverted the course of this thread, once i saw that the material related to the red tails and the aerodynamics behind it are running low and the arguments are getting dry.
lololololololol


let's just go with it and see where it takes us.

I didn't mock the colors, I mocked the people who thought it was a HUGE improvement. It was a minor improvement.

lol even for a troll you're a bad one. i've seen smart trolls, funny trolls, polite trolls, but for that you would need at least some little wit. that you clearly don't have. you just have the disjointed dyslexic diarrhea you fart every now and then. this is how you get your kicks, which is pathetic.

Just to say i am not sure if this has been mentioned in this thread yet or not but that scene some of you are complaining about where the Mustang loops onto the 262 actually happend.

The pilot was Roscoe Brown from the flight which later earned the title The Longest Escort of The War in which the B-17s the flight was covering came under attack from 262's.
Brown developed his own version of the Split S in which instead of rolling straight down he would first climb to increase his speed in the dive in order to catch 262, at point of stalling he would either flip the plane or pitch down to start the dive.

He successfully shot down this 262.

Here is the story from Discoverys "Dogfights" told by the actual pilot. Thankfully the part of the story we need is right at the beginning of this video.



Cheers

S!

nope, that's something completely different.

In the movie you see this plane at the brink of stall, tumbling backwards and shooting as it happens, which kinda defies a couple of laws of physics.

That shot was spead up about 27% so they could fit it in so it looks a little weird. It's also far from a "final shot" as most CG elements get completed in the last few weeks before "picture lock" (with a January release date, that's pretty far away).

If anything, at least the rudder position is in an accurate spot.
