Country: | It's excellent. Although with a title "A Moments Peace" I expected it to be on the ground.

First one is a takeoff scene of 8AF fighters with good hangar/watch office/jeep/men/etc. details in the background, and after that I have a south pacific Corsair scene showing planes on the ground with associated details, etc. I'm working on sketches for both in my spare time now. Check my site for details later.
