View attachment 58095

Was a 'first go' at watercolour [poster colour] taken from a little pocket book called 'Fighter aircraft of the world'....

And thank you Jafo for sharing this with us. I wish I had your artistic talents but this is as far as mine stretches..!

When I did that painting that was THE ONLY image I'd ever seen of the Thud....I think some of its specs were still referred to as 'secret' ... it was small and b/w and I wasn't even sure what I was looking at/painting.... I just liked it's shape.
Later, when I found it was an area-rule airframe it took me ages to get to like /accept the coke bottle shape....;)
 
105 and its not even that time off the day

One for you Jafo
