Too fantastic to comment soon, Merv.
I have been fascinated with your great skill and idea like overlaying officers.

Thanks everyone for all your support and kind comments.

Sorry I have been gone for so long, I haven't had any time for drawing, burning or photography. A situation has come up that demands all our time and I may be away for awhile. I did get a chance to finish another 1956 Buick, it is my attempt at making a candy red color, I hope you like it.

Cheers, Merv

"Silver Back", I just finished this burn of a Silver Back Gorilla. I mad it from a picture I took at the San Diego Zoo a couple of years ago.

Thanks guys, I probably should have made the fur longer and a little darker, next animal I'll work on that.

Well I finally got to get out to the "Planes of Fame Air Museum" Saturday for their discussion on the Korean War, featuring the F-86 Sabre and the Mig 15. The day was not to good for pictures the sky was overcast and ugly gray. I did managed to get some suitable shots but not like I wanted.

No one's complaining, Merv. The outdoor stuff has a great dramatic quality that wouldn't be captured on a sunny blue sky day.

Great

Good shots Merv!

 

[vikingBerserker]

Awesome!

Is that a Ryan Fireball in Pic#2????

 

[ontos]

That is affirmative, Ryan FR-1 Fireball. I took a shot of the back of the aircraft showing the jet engine, I just didn't post it

 

[vikingBerserker]

Outstanding! I had no idea there were any left.

BTW, hell of a job on the gorilla!

 

[ontos]

Thank you for all your comments, greatly appreciated. I did have to delete a lot of the shots due to the poor lightening. More practice required

 

[Gnomey]

Nice shots!
