OT: New drawing

Recommended Posts

Hi folks..been busy working on this one for my friend. His Dad flew 30 plus missions as a rear gunner in Lancasters of 97 Sqn, anyways he wanted a drawing to hang on his wall and this is how its turned out so far...all critiques welcome please.

PS..its a piss poor photo but once completed, I'll get a sharper image, but you can get the idea.

Very nice drawing. It does seem to feature the rear gunner position so that is very apprpriate for your friend. I am not a critic but I can say I think it's fab.

Fab indeed!clapping.gif

The Lanc is outstanding with nice lighting effects

Only trouble I had was detemining it's height

The foreground grass is rather featureless

Maybe a litle irregular tufts or wheel marks from undershoots at the end of the strip

I really hate doing this as I can't do much more than stick figures dntknw.gif

 

Great job and a really nice gesture Puff!

Looks good. I'd be tempted to extend the image and add more grass at the bottom, so you can include her shadow as she comes into land.

Wow, very good work. I wish I had a tenth of that kind of artistic talent.

Thanks folks, I was thinking of extending the grass, but my friend is very happy with it so I thought better than to mess with it lol.
