I like art that looks like stuff, and what you've done looks very good.

That looks fantastic!

Everyone can draw where I work except for me, and it bums me out.

Keep at it!

Thanks for the comments, and all the information is invaluable to try and get this right. Chock, many thanks for the help, the spit depicted is later in the BofB. 602 went to Westhampnett in Aug 13th 1940 and stayed till Dec. The code letters will be corrected when I get to the shading as they will also change to LO-B { flown by Pilot Officer Nigel Rose..asked him on the phone last night what aircraft he flew lol }. The tail nav light will also be added...since the picture was taken I have slightly narrowed the cowl under the aircraft..looked to big and fat and also extended the undercarriage and made the wheels larger..anyway I'll keep you all posted.

With the new changes

Damn, you work fast, whenever I do artwork it takes ages. You should have seen how long it took me to do all the crap for that War Movie thing!

Still, that's probably because I'm a lazy git :rotfl:

Glad to see someone is keeping all that stuff alive though, it looks great, and I do like the fact that you're concentrating on 602. If you've seen that movie of mine, you'll notice that it features 603, who were also one of the 'Scottish' Squadrons up at Drem for a while. 603 being my fave squadron, largely because I have some bits from Pinckney's Spitfire after the wreck was excavated some years ago, including one of the panels which actually still has the paint on it, even after crashing and having been buried for decades! Guess Supermarine really knew how to build those things!
