Warning!  This text file contains descriptions of things in this issue. If
you haven't read the comic yet, stop now or forever be damned!

Luckily, just as I got the idea for this issue the air show came to
Hamilton.  I took my camera and collected all the shots I thought I might
need.  I even have some shots of the Stealth fighter, but didn't have time
to fit it into this issue.

There is probably more image manipulation in this issue then you might
guess.  In all but one shot the planes were on the ground so I had to paint
out all the landing gear and shut all the wheel wells.  I most cases there
were also people standing in front of the planes and they had to be painted
out too.  The cargo bay shot on the last panel had about 20 people that had
to be removed.

All the shots of the helicopter had open doors so I had to close them in
the first panel of page 3.   I added motion blur to the props of the cargo
plane, but that one's more obvious.

I know that I've left a nasty piece of Mecha for the next artist to deal
with in the next issue.  You might recognize it from the Japanese show
Macross or Robotech as it's better known.  Anyway, I'm  willing to make
shots of the model for the next artist if he/she doesn't want to try
drawing it.

The Credit Dept.

To give credit where it is due: the road objects are from the LightWave
road kit, the clouds are from the LightSky kit, and the really cool looking
building is from the LightWave "Metro" tutorial by resident  CLI
RoboLightWaveGuy Colin Cunningham.

I think that's it for now so...

Later, eh?
