Finished this one about a month ago - had to let it dry a bit before scanning. This is one I can't wait to varnish because those Luft colors always look so great with a coat of varnish:

"Deelen Wolves"
(companion painting to "Most Dangerous Game")
18 x 24 oil on panel

EDIT: Here's a closeup of the pilot. His face is about the size of your pinky nail by way of rough comparison. This shows my preferred level of finish - accurate drawing overlaid with a nice "painterly" technique.

That spiral on the spinner of that second FW-190 is going in the wrong direction. Nope, my mistake, it's perfect! :lol: I can't even take a photo that nice!
