I like how you capture the mood in many scenes... it's much more than just a portrayal of warbirds.. very dynamic and thought provoking.

I have a Robert Taylor... I'd consider one of these but I'm trying to downsize my possessions!

I am a medium bomber guy. May I ask what you are planing for the B25? I would guess the Air Apaches. I would like to suggest one of the 13th AF's birds. They do not get much press. I enjoy looking at your work. If I ever find a house, I will order one.

Thanks for all the great comments!

Regarding the B-25 piece in the works: I've got five aircraft on a Port Morseby taxiway from the front, with the lead aircraft veering slightly to its left. Challenging environment - early morning, sunrise just after a heavy thunderstorm (normal for New Guinea). Wet ground (some heavily distorted reflections of the aircraft). Sun-lit thunderheads in the background. Lots of water in the air - lit by landing lights on.

I haven't thought about markings yet.

Coles, you have some awesome artwork! Your perspective is great! I just told my pre-wife that for X-mas I want the Galland aurographed Emil! Great stuff!
 
very very impressed with your art work!!!!


Also welcome to the forums can see you being very worthy addition!
 
You are very talented. I love the way the light plays off of storm clouds when the sun breaks through. I cannot wait to see your B-25s

Impressive stuff!!

I also cannot wait to see the B25 picture. Please update us when that piece is finished. Going to have any B25 pilots sign that piece as well?

Greetings from the Philippines Ron! In fact I've seen your work before while I was researching some aviation artists on the net and I really like your "Moonlight Sortie", looks very realistic. :thumbleft:

Anyway, welcome to the forums!

Hello, ColesAircraft.
Frankly, I am surprised we have received such an able, famous and much talented artist like you here!
Your artworks are competitive to those of Norman Rockwell whom I respect. It's a big honor and I hope this is not a dream. Yes, OK, I am waking up.

Welcome to the forum!
