Blimey indeed! Good call resurrecting this, Geoff! Great to see Mark’s paintings coming to life.
The past year and then some has been slow going for me for various reasons, but 2018 should be lots better. For now some Luft’46 violence that was created for a couple of Luftwaffe secret projects bookazines by Dan Sharp for Mortons Media.
A pair of Junkers Ju 287 A-1 bombers for “Luftwaffe – Secret Bombers of the Third Reich” (August 2016)

And a Blohm & Voss P 215.02 all-weather fighter for “Luftwaffe – Secret Wings of the Third Reich” (August 2017)

Anybody fancies a guess at what plane it has shot down?
This image was also released as print by AviationGraphic by the way.
The unit emblem is that of 2./EJG 2, a night fighter replacement unit, which explains the title of the piece “The New Generation”:

Lastly another image that features on the title page of above-mentioned bookazine, showing a hypothetical first prototype of the Henschel P 122 extreme-altitude bomber.

This too has been released as a print by AviationGraphic.
Next year should see more artwork of real planes again.
