Yes, I have most of them. Can't bear to part with them let alone sell them for peanuts on EBay. Gorgeous mag artwork.

Talk about throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

The Wingspan is the first of this mag (defunct now I think, shame) which I got from EBay this week.

Thank you

I have been trying out Adobe Illustrator to make the basic design (sketching over an existing photograph) then touching up the layers in Photoshop. I'm still very much a n00b, but I'm making progress...

I *think* it took about 6 hours, and about 4 for the Amiot in my sig, but I reckon I should knock that down a bit with practice.

Great job!

Clave - that is impressive so please keep at it and get the time down so we can see more.

Meanwhile, instead of posting more covers I refer you all to the Wingspan page which has fairly good size versions of their covers:
http://www.wingspanmag.com/back_issues.htm
As expected loads of WW2 incl Mossie, Pink Spit, P51s etc.
