Just saying hello - Aviation Artist

Sat Jun 23, 2007 1:15 pm

Gents hi

My first post here, so thought I would so hello, and introduce myself

I'm a UK based aviation artist, so always on the looking out for technical
know-how and aircraft reference, and have already found some great stuff here in the forums. I know you guys will be invaluable in the future.

My latest painting, just off the easel "Boys from the Bennington" showing F4U-1D's from VMF-112 April 1945.

Guys hi

Thanks for the welcome and positive comments, some friendly faces here already !

For Mudge, as Dave has said, click on banner below for a link to my website. I'm still ironing out a few issues with the site, but its getting
there.

For Jack, I've received a lot of good comments on the "Boys from the Bennington" so much so that I will start the full size painting in the next month or so. (40"x16" or there abouts).

I've not seen your den but agree it would look very cool there :wink:
