I’m a new member here, and wanted to share my last artwork with those who’d appreciate it the most!

I also thought you might like my older Hawker Typhoon piece:

Thanks, all!

Beautiful job, Ron. The S.6B is a stunner. I’ve just been reading the article in Aeroplane about digital artwork – could you give us some more details about how you go about yours?
Feel free to post more!!
Thank you!
I know a lot of guys who use 3D software – like 3D Studiomax. When I utilize digital, which isn’t always, I paint by hand in Photoshop. I usually work off a scale model of the subject, but occasionally I’ll paint from a photo.
I’m working on a tutorial: http://colesaircraft.com/tutorial-1.html, but it’s still very much “in progress.”
Thanks for all your pleasant comments! Sure – go ahead and move this thread if it’s better positioned elsewhere.
