Red,

When I went to the Dayton airshow with the Con attendees in Indy I was totally UNIMPRESSED with the various T-shirts, posters and other "stuff" they had for sale.

If I were you I would use these airshows as a stepping stone to getting your business up and running.

Obviously you will need a bigger portfolio to begin this, but once you have a collection you can:

1. Make frameable prints of the drawings you have done and sell them.

2. Offer commissioned drawings and use testimonials from former customers, such as myself, as proof of your ability, integrity and pride.

I think over a million people flowed through the Dayton show alone....all people who have an affinity for aircraft. It would be a bonanza for you man....guarennfreakinteed.

This might sound a bit odd, but that's the first "combat" piece of aviation art I've come across where the center piece of the picture is inverted. The norm in to have the canopy pointing up, which helps keep a type of balance to the picture (indicates up too :->).

That aspect just strikes me as a very unique touch. Really catches the eye and draws you to the print as a whole.

Very nice work indeed!

Vortex....buy looking one COULD assume the Jug is into a barrel

roll to setup on other 190 that appears to be banking left to

setup on the foreground Jug.....and the 190 doesn't see the Jug

coming fast on it's 6. Great drawing, sparks imagination.

Oh I thought the pilot was writing in his logbook "I just killed a 190" and his knee hit the control stick and flipped him upside down.

Very very nice! Although there seems to be something wrong with thw FW in the first picture, but I just can't put my finger on it ... OMG! It's on fire! How could you?!
