Great looking picture, though the background could be tweaked a bit more to bring out the awe of what a hermik styled wall should be like.

i gave u only 75 because i think that something's missing here. i think the pic should show a plane flying right? but when i look at the pic, i dont see it flying, i see it standing around in the air. you should add some smoke or smoke waves or something similar so the plane looks like it's really in motion. enough critic..the clouds look really great, i like that soft blur. the plane is very nice detailed. just add the thing i mentioned and it will be perfect imo.

hermik_ I like your style but I think that it is really isn't suited to action shots, rather, it captures things like landscapes, still lifes and nature. I would like to see you do more animals, insects etc. Oh, and yeah, you still have to do a city scape for us ¦¬P

for sure it's suited for action shots. for proof see the ICE train done by hermik.
but it's too much greyness on this wall. but otherwise perfectly done NASA jet/plane.

I'm missing something here.. it's so ... clean. Too clean.UPDATE: So, here's my review: It's better than I thought on the first time, it's still your personal style. I like the color choice, it's not this green like your other walls, but it's the typicial hermik masterpiece :) Note: Next time please submit ALL versions of the wall in a zip-file!

Very clean. The spacecraft seems to be gliding, in a way. Not all action shots need to "look" fast with blurred angles, etc. Get creative, people! This is loveely, and very serene. Colour choice is excellent.

Very nice.. Resembles the picture Perfectly. Picture makes it look like the plane is toping off at it's maximum height and getting ready to go over the top of it's arc and start it's way back down to earth... Nice...

Stunning resemblance to the original photo! Your walls are always so fresh and clean, which makes them very desktop friendly. : ] ::::::::::::: I'd have to disagree with _long's comment regarding the use of your style. I think it works very well with any subject, be it still life or moving objects. Take this wall for example, http://www.customize.org/details/24044. Personally I think it's one of your best. It really captures the essence of speed and movement and does so with a certain style and grace.

I'm a sucker for planes, so I was overjoyed to see this. The green and light blue look fantastic centered on my 1280x854 display. The points were lost because it looks better on my widescreen than in 4x3. The ground looks a bit odd, but thats okay since I have no idea how to fix it.

before someone asks again: 3 other colors are availble on my homepage, also in 1600x1200 and 1280x1024. UPD: this is and was not intended to be an action shot, otherwise I would have done it like one. And it's no water neither, it's mountains. the higher you get, the more atmosphere you got between yourself and the ground, because of that, the ground becomes more and more blue. UPD: I can't submit all variations since custo doesn't seem to take files larger than 1.2MB. That's why they're at my homepage.
