Isometrics - Supermarine Spitfire

The first in a series of World War II isometric drawings. Though I won't say much, I can say that between myself and fellow VPS member Cody Walker you should be seeing a fair amount of material.

This is a Supermarine Spitfire, the infamous fighter plane of the Second World War. It was so well designed, that its use carried on into the 1950s. It is most notably remembered for the Battle of Britain.

Airship Painting, round 1

First session of painting for the airship. As you can see, the colour is mostly blocked in, with some shading happening here and there.

Kraken! or Seascape v2.0

A friend of mine happened along an old fake painting on the side of the road on his way from home. The painting was too intriguing to pass up, so he brought it home. He mentioned it to me, and I got him to send a picture of it:

Look at this thing! What a dismal painting. It was obvious that this painting was in dire need of help. The solution was obvious:

Giant krakens always make things better, right?

The actual "painting" is about 4' x 2', came from Eatons (the tag was still underneath the paper backing) and was presumably from that period of time when exceptionally depressing paintings were all the rage. I painted over top with acrylics, and then used a glossy medium to match the shine of the original.

Airship Orthographics

A further developed set of drawings for the airship concepts shown in the last post. These are a few orthographic drawings I've done in order to solidify the general design.

The next step is to clean up the sketches in Illustrator, where I'll fiddle around with the design a little more before going on to detailed perspective drawings.
