hi guys,

put the drawing to one side for a while and decided to do some painting, started with the camouflaged version.

[JMSmith]

and here's the base for the natural metal one,


this should be fun

[Supah]

Well so far so good right? Interested in seeing this progress

[JMSmith]

hi guys,

i am still here, bit of time off from drawing, problem with my eyes (conjunctivitis) almost gone now

here is the tail section, the rib effect is now toned down from the one i posted before on the Ki61 thread, first one is reduced to 75% and the small close up is actual size, i have a feeling i will lose most of the rivet detail when i reduce the profile to my usual size

[Skyraider3D]

Looking very good so far, mate!

[AGNT_Matt]

yeah looking good buddy, i'm getting closer to starting My firebrand, after i finish a He-162 and F-104

[JMSmith]

IT'S BACK!

started dusting of the old Spearfish ready to resume painting

[Otterkins2]

It's about time! John, stop hanging around with the boyz in the 'hood...OK? You might have looked good with your pants at butt level 30 years ago, but quite frankly now it's rather scary. Put your hat on right too. Your head isn't crooked

hi otter,

went looking for a cartoon image, but could not find one so i used this one from Rodos when we were living there, believe it or not it was taken at christmas time
