Hi All!
So history number one as follows:
In 1940, a pilot Ivanov fulfilling his scheduled flight saw huge flying fish.
Isn't it exciting and gripping?
Spectacular?

[sepi]

Intresting idea!Could be spectacular.Good luck

[LexLe]

Thanks for support!
Has looked your works
To me too have liked
So to hold!
Success!

Greetings to all!
I continue a theme " flying fishes ":)
Pencil sketch
Study of details
Success all

[sirBS]

хорошая идея. Здесь очень важно показать что именно рыбы являются большими, а не самолёт игрушечным. И ракурс можно найти поинтересней.

[LexLe]

Thanks Sergey!
I just thought, that it is necessary to change a composition and a foreshortening
Once again thanks for advice

[sepi]

Maybe you should zoom out little bit and try to play with the angle of view.I think fishs are too big...i dont now

[LexLe]

In that that all and business :)
That fishes should be greater!!!
In it I also consider that "Spectacular"
I have thought up history about 1940 and about pilot Ivanov which have seen greater flying fishes!
Thanks for advice :)

[sirBS]

At you normal idea. All depends on that as will draw.
It is possible one of fishes to draw more time in two and it is more terrible with the open mouth in a pursuit of self-summer. As I already spoke a foreshortening it is necessary more interestingly. It will seems to me well when self-years will fly on the spectator and hardly aside, and the fish behind floated (those flew by) and having turned a head in jerk has opened a mouth.
Can represent in general such here a house: fishes flew, horses закрякали or how there in a fairy tale at Marshak? It is possible to heap up more shortly, though it is already a few other idea... But I think not worse.

[NinjaA55N]

hi there!
I think its a good idea to go with, but at the moment its a bit messy. those elements covering each other make that chaos and its very hard to read what is what, where it is placed and so on. If its meant that fishes r big or a plane that small that they r equal, u should leave some space around the plane to let it breath. And maybe place one fish to the first plan, so its covering the plane a bit. Thats how u will get on a dramatic effect, while it will be clearly seen that the plane is in the middle of those flying fishes and is trying to dodge them.
Keep going with the good work buddy! :)

[LexLe]

Thanks for advice. I shall necessarily consider it in following sketches
I wish to change all completely both a composition and a foreshortening..:)
Success all

[LexLe]

Greetings Sergey!
Thanks for advice! I shall change a composition and a foreshortening
Only as you think if the fish wishes to bite the plane for a tail... And from machine guns to receive... The Plane that all militarian I-153 (Chajka-Seagull) (they then in 1940
To year were on arms of the Soviet Aircraft) About the idea has come, fight with flying fishes was conducted by pilot Ivanov, instead of has simply seen.. Instead of whether too
Aggressively??
Whether and in general grasping it?
Spectacular?
Thanks for advice..
I shall work.. :)

[MasonRoberts]

I say choose a more dramatic angle whgich emphasises the scale of the fishes compared to the plane! Also to make known the scale put maybe islands or clouds in the background? Another thing is to make the fish show much more movement by giving them a more dynamic pose! Just keep playing with it and I am sure you will have a great composition together! :thumbsup:

[Pony_art]

Nice idea :)
Good luck!

..and keep deadline terms in mind :)

[Art2]

Hey LexLe, sorry, this is the first time I see your entry.
Now I understand the similarity of our concepts.
I really like your sketch and idea, keep it up!
I see what I can do to make mine less similar to yours.

Good luck, buddy :thumbsup:

[LexLe]

To Mason Roberts - thanks and thanks for advice
I like your work too... Sketches new I shall expose this week... I am a lot of work is a little bit loaded..:sad: Successes! :)
To Pony Art- thanks..:) I hope to see you in competition.. And that, hours a tic-so, a tic-so - time leaves :)
To Art2 - Respect for you ART2!:thumbsup: Thanks for that that have visited mine thread... Success! :)
Excuse for my bad English

[dork vodar]

your concept is original and 'refreshing'. keep going. good luck.

[PELENG]

I like the concept! The final image must be great. Good luck!
As for me - the fish eyes must be smaller, I think it will help to see how big that fish!

[LexLe]

Hi all!
I'm back.
I was a bit busy, a lot of work. I continue working on "Flying Fish", actually searching a better composition that's supposed to convey my story. It has to be more dramatic perspective.
I don't know... There're many different solutions, and I'm wondering what you think about that one?

[ChrisThatGuy]

I liked it a bit better when the pilot was flying in the opposite direction as the fish, because it would be more frightening for the pilot. Nice concept.

[sirBS]

привет. самолёт с пилотом - уже лучше !
но рыб я бы сделал разнообразней. они по прежнему не интересны.
Я бы некоторые поместил дальше, некоторые - ближе, чтоб размер был разный и повернул бы больше на зрителя. Если это стая летящая в одном направлении - пусть рыб будет намного больше. пусть их будет так много что почти не будет видно неба, но не делай их одного размера - пусть они рассеются в пространстве.

With the pilot - it is already better than self-years!
But I would make fishes more variously. They on former are not interesting.
I would place the some people further, the some people - are closer, that the size was different and would turn more on the spectator. If it is flight flying in one direction - let fishes will be much more. Let them will be so much that will not be visible almost the sky, but do not do their one size - let they will dissipate in space.

[OmeN2501]

Gotta agree with Sergey Banityuk - add some more fish variety. All in all really interesting concept. I hope you will play more with lights and blinks on that one cuz it got real potential ;] (http://spaces.msn.com/members/sen-spot/Blog/cns%211pIAHAaB5R9WXqalOoDhPSAg%21126.entry)

[LexLe]

Thanks all!
dork vodar-thanks! I like your idea continue it
peleng-thanks for support
ChrisThatGuy-thanks for advice
Sergey Banityuk-thanks for advice.. Has necessarily accepted it
In attention. I think flight of greater flying fishes consisted of 9 fishes
It is no more. After the second world war they have died out in connection
with Environmental contamination (joke)...:) and the pilot saw them only
Ivanov in the nature they met very seldom...
OmeN 2501-thanks

Hi all ! I'm still in good composition search, although it's time to do a lineart. I changed format to horizontal oriented and more wide, guess it's a better way to show the flight of the plane and fish.
Here're three new sketches. Your opinion? Any comments are welcomed.
Excuse for bad English

[NinjaA55N]

Hi man! I suggest u to go with the 3rd option... its a nice and interesting composition, dynamic and a great contrast. :)

[PSych]

Hi LexLe!

I like the second concept :bounce:
Good luck :thumbsup:

[Nikolay]

The good idea, sketches very much like me... Good luck!

I don't know... There're many different solutions, and I'm wondering what you think about that one?

Here I most of all like position of self-summer. It is necessary to find position of fishes only. Try fishes to develop even more on the spectator - almost in three quarters.
And last variants are worse.

[Slav]

breat idea i dont think i have been a big fan of flight scenes... but one thing is for sure you have gave me a new interest.

usually they are too still for me. :P

[LexLe]

Thanks all!
NinjaASSN - thanks buddy!
PSych - thanks
Sergey Banityuk - thanks buddy!
Nikolay -thanks
Slav thanks is pleasant to me your work too !

Good luck all!

[makaron]

I kind of like nr: 2... looks like it´s a danger that one of fish is gonna crash with the plane... :eek:

New sketch
I still in searches of a composition

[sirBS]

нет динамики ! мне кажется здесь нужна именно динамика ! - ощущение скорости. А вот как покрашена рыба - мне очень нравится - живо и цвета реальные. Чешуя чувствуется.

There is no dynamics! It seems to me here dynamics is necessary! - sensation of speed. And here is how the fish is painted - very much it is pleasant to me - vividly and colors real. The scales is felt.

To Sergey Banityuk
Thanks for advice buddy!
That it is necessary to work.. Simply composition is air in it
And flying fishes to do the plane is possible much - but the main thing, that I want
To show it the plane that is in details it to work, and its meeting in Air with flying fishes,
Where there should be a line of horizon how to show mutual relation of the pilot
Which has met fishes.. Here questions which excite me
If comments any more will not be
Has gone to work :hmm:
Good luck all:thumbsup:

Even it is pleasant to me that they were built in one number is mysteriously)

[sirBS]

Excellent colors!:thumbsup: Try to be in time!:scream: It is very a pity if you will not be in time!
I think it is possible on a background possible to add a fog that it is less time to spend for it, and all forces to leave for the foreground.

[antTON]

Well done Dude! You're almost did it! :buttrock:
