Aviation art

This is my first venture into the world of aviation art and it was a lot of fun. The hardest part was getting  the lettering right – I must have done it a dozen times! I’m really happy with the painting overall and especially like the little spots of light on shining on the propellor housings. I just learn so much when I take on a new subject – who knew painting a plane could be so much fun!

        How did you work out the sizing for the writing?

      Yes – a bit of googling on model painting sites helped with that.
