Contest: Re-create an Historical Photograph.
« on: November 04, 2012, 12:04:55 PM »

Hey every body. You wnat to participate in A contest set up for the Re-creation of real life images/photo's, only using IL2 moded or un moded, This Idea was brought up by our Distinguished Artist/Skinner. max_thehitman     https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?action=profile;u=3223
What do you guys think about it. Also to keep it nice and neat and allays on topic, We need a volunteer to Moderate only this thread. Post comments and feelings about this new Contest. Ideas welcome, but Max has pretty much said it all. ;)

R.O.E.
1. Start Posting your Art, After a Historical Aviation Photo is Picked for the Initial Contest Photo to begin the Contest.

2. Then, we have exactly 15 days (2 weeks) to post our screenshots that come as close to the original photo as
possible. Color or black and white , it don´t matter. You can post ONLY 2 screenshots. Make sure
to post your name on them, for the vote.

3. All the screenshots posted are collected by name and put up for a public vote on a weekend,
like Saturday and Sunday. After 2 days vote, whom ever wins gets to choose the next photograph
for everyone to re-create that aviation event.

4. So there can be 2 contests every month and many screenshots for everyone to post.

5. Moderator for the Contest is Ice~Eagle. His rules/words are official and final, and will not be contested. Thanks to all to cooperate. This is for FUN and Awesome Eye Candy for us Old Farts and young alike, lol.

Ice~Eagle Has the Honor of Picking the initial Photo, as to give every one an Idea of how it is done. Thank you. There After, "Let The Games Begin"!!

Good show man, I like it  8) Groooovy!

We practicly have all the airplanes in IL-2 flying around to recreate historical WW1, WW2,
Korean-War and Vietnam-War photographs....and if you search for them, you can even
find a great skin for the real airplane too.

What would be the requirements/rules?

We used to have a very similar contest a few years back on another flight-sim-art forum.It was
great fun and gets you motivated to try out new screenshot-styles and airplanes.
The rules were simple.
One person starts off by posting an historical photograph, of any era and any war. Then we have
exactly 15 days (2 weeks) to post our screenshots that come as close to the original photo as
possible. Color or black and white , it don´t matter. You can post ONLY 2 screenshots. Make sure
to post your name on them, for the vote.
All the screenshots posted are collected by name and put up for a public vote on a weekend,
like Saturday and Sunday. After 2 days vote, whom ever wins gets to choose the next photograph
for everyone to re-create that aviation event.
So there can be 2 contests every month and many screenshots for everyone to post.
That is how it worked.

Hmm.. It's pretty nice to see such thread being started. I love the idea, it's interactive in a special way and is definitely a thread to monitor from time to time.
I'm going to post only one screenshot for now though:
