I'm a naval historian (at least at night) and am using XARA to do all the illustrations for a forthcoming book I'm writing on the Battle of Midway. I thought I might share one of my pics; my latest version of the Japanese aircraft carrier Soryu. Feedback is most welcome--I am self-taught, and am still trying to figure out how to do shading, fractal cloud fills, and that sort of thing. Any tips on increasing the realism would be gratefully received. Sorry the damned thing is so gray--warships are kinda blah that way, I'm afraid.
Cheers,
