    Most excellent result Jetx.
    I particularly like the engine detail.

    As you have posted in the Xara Gallery section, I have uploaded a jpg version of your .xar for others view your work.

    Jetz. A really fantastic drawing. One thing that puzzles me though, I noticed that if I opened your xar file up and looked at it in wire frame much of the detail was missing. In fact I had to ungroup several times and when it would no longer ungroup apply a 2 pixel line to see all the elements in the drawing. I've never come across this in Xtreme before. Have you any reason why this might be happening?

    Hi,

    Thanks for the comments.


    Sledger, thanks for the jpegging..

    Egg, Dunno what happened there, I managed to get the bits back onto their layers by messing around with layer 12, some ungrouping and now it's pretty much editable again.

    If you'd like that version let me know.

    Could you post a .xar that contains the photo that was drawn over.

    I am miles off doing something like this but find it fascinating.

    That's just a great looking Spitfire Jetx. I have a weakness for all mechanical things, especially those with wings and props.

    Hi DD I'm not sure of the rules on posting stuff twice - I have the put bits on the 'correct' layers now (they were all grouped on the original post).
    If someone could clarify the rules a bit (my first graphic post). I'll put the edited version up with the bitmap.

    Jetx if you want to attach updated images/files, no problem it does not violate any rules.

    BTW very nice drawing.
