appraiserfl Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) There are soo many great artists, prints and paintings out there that it is almost impossible to choose! I just bought each of these two prints for my home office, what do you all think? http://www.directart...php?ProdID=1784 http://www.directart...hp?ProdID=19645 Edited July 31, 2010 by appraiserfl

appraiserfl Posted July 31, 2010 Author Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) . B-E-A-U-tiful appraiserfl! Those are going to look great in your office. . Thanks Louvert! I think I will dedicate a wall for related artwork, but its soo hard not to fill that wall up all at once! I think I am good for late war german aircraft now and will try and find some earlier paintings, but I gotta pace myself, lol I really love how Berryman portrayed a historically accurate scene in the final curtainl! I am doing my best to resist buying these http://www.russellsmithart.com/Small%20pages/WingedValor.htm http://www.russellsmithart.com/Small%20pages/Starting%20Line.htm Edited July 31, 2010 by appraiserfl
TrollBreath Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 Those are fantastic. I'm hoping to remodel a workshop/garage in the next year or two into a real man-cave, and I'm going with an aviation theme, combo WWI and WWII, and some posters like that would definitely fit right in once I get around to decorating the place. Nice find.
+RAF_Louvert Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 . appraiserfl, I say go for that next pair as well. You can never have too much fine artwork about, IMHO. I feel the same way towards good books too. .
Tonyo - legion Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 you have excellent taste appraiserfl, the artwork is superb, although definitely out of my price range! I went to duxford flying legends this year, & got a few pictures - nothing special, but not bad theyre dotted all around my living room. I'l take a pic of them, & post it later, Maybe this would be a good idea for a new topic - whats on your walls?
CaptSopwith Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 Beautiful prints! I remember that first print quite well. Back in the old RBII days, someone made a patch for CM1.1 (the ancient file manager for date based patches in Red Baron) that changed the stock black and white photos into gorgeous color paintings. I believe I set that print to be the main screen. Thanks for the quick trip back to the late 1990's! I enjoyed it!
Rickitycrate Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 appraiserfl, good selections you've made. Good for you sir! I am remodeling my little "beer" room and plan on displaying my humble collection on it's walls. I'm inspired by OFF to try a wall mural. Alas, I lack the talent. I still may give it a go.
appraiserfl Posted August 1, 2010 Author Posted August 1, 2010 I just won Trudgian's Tiger Fire on Ebay for $150 (it retails for about $425). Lets hope its authentic, if so I am very stoked because I have had my eye on this one forever! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320568528549&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
themightysrc Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 I almost hesitate to post this, but I've found that this: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Wk7WIBpZWgs/SYUgJ0dPn9I/AAAAAAAACBM/h3eWOD8V_kk/s1600-h/21425~The-General-Posters.jpg is the best picture I've seen in years. Stuff WWI kites - tetchy looking hares are the business.
