Fighting the wrong enemy

[wireandpaper]

My list just increased by three!
The very big Leo-451;
the super nice recolor by Rata of the H-75; and
my humble recolor of Bruno's A-20 posing as a DB-7 (the wrong way, using raster and not vector).

ps: and at the rate Bruno is designing it may be bumped again!

I was wondering when will someone notice A-20 in Bruno's lineup.It's a good looking model and possibilities for recolors are huge even in just this early version.It looks pretty good.

What's "raster"?

[Rata]

I've got Bruno's A-20 in the 'To Do' file. It's a VERY large file with lots of 'to do's'. One day........

As a repainter I should know what raster is but embarrassingly I don't.

Raster is painting with a brush (as in MS Paint)
Vector is telling a line to go from point A to B to C and back to A, and then fill it up with a color (as the geometrical figures in MS Word, like Bruno does, or MS Power Point, as I do sometimes)

Raster vs vector images
Raster vs vector in words

I found out, the P-40 is a recolor of a recolor of the Chinese Flying Tigers by Fly'n Things, from an original of "Jack Amstrong tru-flite plane models" with a revised wing.

I think these are nice visuals to understand vector and raster.
If you have many pixels you won't notice the difference

Looks like everything I ever did in PS was in raster.I use to have MS Paint and hated it very much,PS3 or 4 I got later was way better.

I still have to get MS Word like one Bruno is using.

Thanks for explanation.

I like the new additions to your aerial fleet, Pablo!

Raster is useless when upscaled, thats why I ending redoing your recolors in the thread that I don't visit a long time ago.

[wireandpaper]

Thank you Don.

Rata, you may get a present soon.

Tony what eloquence!
Yes, if you need to upscale your models, vector would be the way.
But if you want to reduce like me, it doesn't make a lot of difference.
And, by the way, anyone is welcome to vectorize my recolors.
