I had never noticed that. Thanks for pointing it out, Ronnie!

Tough to decide what's best, although I'll probably go for the esthetical option, which is also the simplest one. Prop blades are one of the many things I need to improve...

Hi, undercarriage leg and tyre complete:


Cheers

PS: The big © was not on the real thing!

Clint! love it, even smells like rubber, get closer to your screen and have a sniff, go on... lol. Like to see just a little wear on the labels and the white marker on the tyre, Dude, enough said.

[Clint Mitchell]

Cheers Graf, I'll look into it.

[pkassak]

U must be INSANE man !!!! Excellent work
Will you print it in real size? ! 1:1 ?? I would do so ....with such a details

[Grafikco]

Leave it, you have you have not done it to please us fella, if that's the way yeah like then then keep it. I would, like to see the whole thing!

"warning will robinson"

beautifull work but! the tyre compression is wrong, at the moment it looks like you just chopped a peice off the bottom to create the flat, try using deformation and push up watch how the tyre deforms then you will understand what i mean

[Clint Mitchell]

Thanks chaps. Overal shot for Grafiko:


Still got the tail wheel to do yet. Graf, the weathering on the labels etc is a good call so I will implement it later. Cheers.

Peter K: I'm slightly detail but I honestly could not do it any other way, I wish I could because it would take me a lot less time to finish one of these things. It is supposed to be printed large also at some point. Thanks for your kind words.

John: Yep I see what you mean but I'm gonna have to work out a way to overcome this without redoing the whole tyre. I'll try and cheat with the distortion but I'll have to wait until it's flat for that and also at the correct stationary angle. I will sort it though so cheers.

All I've got left now is: Tail wheel, Shadows, and general oil streaks, stains etc then I think this one is good to go.

She's mighty fine, a real pleasure on the eye; pleased for you and good to hear she's near the end. What's your finished size? where is she going to live? and will prints be for sale (I want one :-) and what's next! Hope it's not a Spitfire.

Hi Graf, I'm dead chuffed to be honest. It's worked out really well. The width is 800mm. I'm creating it for the guy who is restoring this very aircraft and he will be using images on his website and he mentioned a large scale banner at the Norwegian Armed Forces Museum where the restoration is taking place. It's a freebie for them really so he would sort out loads of detail photos which he did. I would happily supply a print but I would wait for the A-5 schemes I'm going to be doing as they are a bit more interesting camo wise but it's up to you really. I will be creating loads of schemes so just pick your fave and I'll get one printed. Strictly Luftwaffe for me and maybe one Italian aircraft in the future. I'm working on a large personal project first then may branch out into the other nations? Thanks for your interest. If your Spitfire exhaust stacks are anything to go by then your Spit is gonna be a killer.
