Here'one of mine:



Oops! Forgot about all the stuff outside the picture envelope! Ah well, the pic is the part with the light purple around it and the P-51 image is Steve Hinton's P-51D "Wee Willy."

Don't go commercial with it.

Here's another update with more background and the Hellcat started. It's a lot of layering and burnishing with the stomps, and cutting of stencils.

Got a start on the cockpit and added deeper and darker tones into the shadow side of the Hellcat. I'll have to clean up some of the panel lines again after adding in the darker tones. Overall, the colours here always appear more saturated than they actually are on my original, even when I adjust them to compensate in photoshop, don't know why.

I don't draw, but I do design wargame simulations which often requires "electronic rendering" of existing images, often for no better reason than to get around copywrite issues. Maps, counter design and counter images are usually what i do. Havent had much opportunity this past couple of years, but I could dig out some "modified images of ships and aircraft if people would like to see.

im a bit embarrassed to show this stuff. i dont consider it to be art as such, more technical application, but some of it might be interesting.
 
Urban "Ben" Drew was famous for flying his P-51 Mustang "Detroit Miss" in the ETO during WWII. After completion of his European tour, Drew served with the 413th Fighter Squadron, 414th Fighter Group, flying P-47N-5s from Iwo Jima. I have chosen to depict his "Jug" being serviced on Iwo Jima in 1945. On another forum it was mentioned that Ben himself said that the aircraft was named "Miss Detroit", not "Detroit Miss II" which I originally thought. I'll most likely add some little tidbits of detail such as tools and things in the foreground. I will portray this same scene in oil pastel as well.
