Nice pics... Can I ask you about the technique you use to delete the propeller effect (grey disk) and enhancing the propeller blades movement?

Thanks in advance.

Willy look here Props

Thank you, but on my opinion, the disk is seen there yet (link). I prefer to delete the propeller disk effect.

In these thread shots, the sky colour helps you to hidden that effect, but in other situations the disk would be there...

Thank you again, mate.

Willy this pic have a five layers...1.layer-background
2.layers-Mustang - no propeler
3.Mustang propeler -must heve a pic of static props- use radial
blur
4.Raiden-no propeler
5.Raiden propeler - again radial blur

finish , merge all layers and adjust color ... :wink:

I love it !!!!

What I'm looking for is a technique to eliminate the propeller disk effect. I only work with a pic (not 2), but doing the propeller blades is not a problem for me. I can do them from scratch with the same blurred effect.

My problem is delete fully the disk...

Thank you.

Great shots, as always, Mike!

Willy: You can eliminate the prop disc. I've done it but it takes a bit of time and careful work.

1) You can simply paint over the disc in some areas, like where it passes in front of parts of the plane. Simply use the "Eye Dropper" tool, set on "Point Sample", to pick up the exact color from the area of the plane on which you are working. Choose a small, non-diffused brush. The smallest brush, about one pixel, would probably work just fine. You'll have to pay attention to things like panel lines, shading and rivets so you would be using the "Eye Dropper" a lot to match color. You could do it on a new layer for safety's sake.

2) In some areas, like sky, the "Rubber Stamp" tool works better. Simply select an area of sky near where you are going to be working, pick it up with the "Rubber Stamp" tool and rubber stamp over the area where the prop disc is. Change what you have picked up as needed to get a good match and so that a repeating pattern is not visible.

3) That's about all you need other than fine tuning with other tools as necessary. Some of the other tools you might use are "Blur" and "Smudge".

4) You can also make a "Selection" and adjust brightness, contrast, etc. as needed until everything blends to your satisfaction.

If you have further questions about this, let me know and I'll see if I can be of assistance, M8. :wink:

Yep, manual work... a lot of time and results will depend on the bottom in the original pic. That's the reason I'm asking for any specific technic to do this...

Thanks in advance

To the best of my knowledge, that IS the technique, Willy! :lol:

If you mean, "Is there a fast, easy and simple way to do this?", the answer is, "No!" There ain't no "magic bullet" and there ain't no button you can press to make it happen. There is no plugin that will do it for you. If that's what you want, I'm afraid you're gonna hafta sweat for it, M8! :lol: :wink:

I use the manual work to get this and other results. But, there is ppl who knows specific techniques to do a lot of things. Several things I was doing with simple tools and a lot of time, other mates were doing them with few steps through specific techniques with great results...

And this is my question: Does anyone know a faster way to rid the propeller disk out with a different technique? With big resolution pics and enough free time I can get what I want, but, is there any other method more efficient?

That's my question.

Thank you.

Willy.

Yeah, I understand that, Willy, and the answer is, "No, there ain't!" :wink:
