Greens and Greys

I think Ive used all my greens and greys in doing this plane! But its nearly there now..
Which is good as I have that boat waiting in the wings and another painting I really want to do over Christmas... which is only 7 weeks away now!

The photo has overdarkened some parts but Im sure you get the idea.. I still love the attitude of this plane!  Port wing only to go now!!!

Fast jet

Got the hurry up on a commission of a yacht so have to get on with this wee jet.
Couldn't resist the kiwi roundel!

Had lunch with Warwick earlier in the week. Nice to see him doing well and hopefully restarting some drawings again.
Rugby World Cup final sunday morning.. GO THE ALL BLACKS!

Macchi-nations

Started a pencil vignette of the RNZAF Macchi MB339.

Tricky colours and am having to guess a tad from another photo but so far so good.

X-Allent!

Falcon XA finished.

Took most of last week off for a trip on the Tranzalpine down South and then suffered horrendous caffiene withdrawal headache for last Friday. Didnt do much drawing but managed to finish this one today. Off to see daughters new fur baby (dog) this arvo. Hope he's friendly!

The Falcon is Flying!

Well Jim Richards XA Falcon actually!
From way back in the 70's here's Jimmy punting the Falcon hard around Puke.

About 4 hours on this so far. Nice clean easy car to do so shouldn't take too long.
The Escort is selling like Hotcakes too.. great stuff and Im planning another plane for my next one. Then I have to attack Peter's sailboat again!!
