| Update: a collector sent me this photo - I've decided to make it the main subject of my painting. I love the nose art.
The pilot, 2Lt William G. "Bill" Baumeister, Jr. isn't credited with any aerial victories, so it will also represent the vast majority of the non-aces who hung it out there right beside the more famous types.
Oh - in answer to a question above, pls check out my website to see all my completed works in oil *and* pencil

Country: | we're farmers, we're too tight fisted to bet with money, i won pride 
and that was in winter, the surface has dried out a lot more, which some people seem to think means it's solid all the way through, people still die falling in these pits, we lost a calf in there a few years back.........

| Fantastic drawing of a fantastic plane! I like sketches, sometimes more than colour. I read comics and some of my faves are sans colour.
What are you going to do with it? Sell it on Ebay?
I don't have the time either tho I think I can do something that looks plane-like. My daughter is fantastic at drawing, spends hours on it. No planes yet tho. | |
