Nice. The Corvette seems a bit out of place, but it's nice.

Yes, I have most of them. Can't bear to part with them let alone sell them for peanuts on EBay. Gorgeous mag artwork.

Here's a weird plane - one that looks like it has one engine but has two. The Fairey Gannet was a great plane and we used to have one on the display circuit till it went to the US. I think it is back now. Hope to see it again. I bet the Royal navy FAA regretted the demise of the AEW Gannet more than most other planes it had on its carriers when the Falklands War came along. Talk about throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

Friday's FP folder etc.
The Wingspan is the first of this mag (defunct now I think, shame) which I got from EBay this week.

Thank you

I have been trying out Adobe Illustrator to make the basic design (sketching over an existing photograph) then touching up the layers in Photoshop. I'm still very much a n00b, but I'm making progress...

I *think* it took about 6 hours, and about 4 for the Amiot in my sig, but I reckon I should knock that down a bit with practice.

Clave - that is impressive so please keep at it and get the time down so we can see more.

Meanwhile, instead of posting more covers I refer you all to the Wingspan page which has fairly good size versions of their covers:

As expected loads of WW2 incl Mossie, Pink Spit, P51s etc.
