You can fix the lighting in it with Micro Soft Paint. Just darken the Highlights a little to bring the moon in better.

Nakajima Ki-43, Pilot Major Katsuji Sugiura. I used information from a model builders site to make this rendition, I search for verification on the tail markings but can't seem to find anything. Can anyone find info on these markings, it would be surely appreciated

Excellent work....tail looks familiar...will check some references....

Thanks Wheels and Wayne.

I appreciate your looking up the markings for me wayne. I recall that the company that made the model said that Major Sugiura flew the aircraft in the Burma campaign in Oct. 1942 with the 11th Flight Regiment.

Cool work Ontos!

Another excellent piece of work there Merv!! You do aircraft renditions a lot better than I do photography!

 

[ontos]

Thanks for looking at my art work Aaron Gnomey. Aaron I think your pictures are better

I have one more to do, a P-38 photo recon called "Guardian Angel, for a gentlemen who sent me e-mail saying his grandfather flew the aircraft over Germany during WWII. His Grandfather was Col. Robert H. Adams. He asked if I could do a drawing of the nose art in color for him and I just thought I would throw in a drawing of the aircraft. He just happened to see a picture of the P-38 "Guardian Angel" on the web, it was a skin I did for IL2, somehow he got my e-mail address, it doesn't matter I am honored t. I can't Waite to get into it.
