    Default Supermarine Seafangs

    The Seafang built for carrier service first flew in 1946. Powered by a 2350 hp Rolls Royce Griffin, a top speed of 475mph, twin contra- rotating props and laminar flow wings the Seafang was at the pinnacle of Spitfire design. Only two were produced and never entered service, so I'll call this a 'what if' as three fly in formation down the coast. The planes are 100% vector and the landscape is a mix of vector and raster.

    Absolutely beautiful, Gray.
    If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
    They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:

    Very dramatic, especially with the background!

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    this is a sample of my art work painted using corel painter, but as for using Xara ...I can never ... lets just I am unable to produce such fantastic art work that looks the way yours and other talented Xara users do.

    Thanks Boy, AM Design.
    AM Design, that's a really good portrait you did with Painter.
    It just takes a little practice with vectors and a different approach than raster. Once it falls into place it's like vector by numbers. Don't give up on vectors.
