Hello
Here is a study I made about polished metal surface aircraft.
I used the famous MiG-15 as a subject, in order to understand and develop new methods of depicting metal polished aircraft.
I will do a follow on to this one to study the depiction of weathering on aircraft with these kinds of surfaces.
All comments are most welcome.
Best regards to all

Nice work! Your metal finish looks convincing to me!
But, shouldn't the pilot have a mask on?

Thanks for your comment.
The mask: i do not know if pilots wore masks all the time, but it is a good idea and i will place one.
I am thinking of doing a series of Prints about MiG-15's and I think I will include masks for the pilots.
Thnaks again and best regards

Beautiful
MIGs are cool. Have you seen the fairly recent declassified accounts of the tons of Soviet pilots who actually fought in the Korean War in these birds?

Hi Jim
I am glad you like it.
Actually the first prints I intend to do are about Soviet Aces of the Korean war.
I am currently gathering information about it and hope to have some prints available soon.
Best regards
