Did this last night while watching the Colts go 11-0.

This is a small "refined thumbnail" of my upcoming Morning Mission, showing Kidd Hofer taxiing at Debden prior to takeoff. Photos and film taken at Debden show a lot of marshalling for takeoff and taxiing to and fro their dispersals on the grass. I wanted to show the "transition" as Hofer left the peri-track.

The final canvas will be 18 x 24. I didn't measure the proportions before marking the borders of this little sketch ... the final 18 x 24 canvas will have a bit less expanse in the vertical. I mainly wanted to locate the horizontal borders here.

After I finish the aircraft outline in detail, I'll do a larger pencil study, then it's on to the final canvas. First, though, I've got other projects nipping at my heels.

I would be tempted to frame what you have here! I am not an artist, so I don't know what kind of weight this welll carry, but GOOD JOB!

Do you want to find locations of displayed, stored or active aircraft? Then start with the The Locator.
Do you want to find or contribute to the documented history of an aircraft? If so then start with the Airframes Database.

Much appreciated! I actually would frame this little sketch (a nice professional frame job would set it off very nicely), but I want to keep my sketchbook intact. Those books will be fun to look through years from now.

I will be doing a larger, more detailed pencil study of this scene ... that one will be framed - or sold off first.
