Artist's Comments

As promised, one interesting wwI plane. I paint it because I really like the unusual design. Its an austria-hungarian figter nicknamed Starstrutter or flying coffin:)
Second thing is that Im coming from the same city as the pilot of this plane. He was the best pilot from hungary in wwI. On the picture he is defending the port on adriatic against Italian bombers.

Technically, I had a 3d model done by my friend which was used for basic perspective. Rest is painting in photoshop with a big help from custrom brushes done by other frined. But generally I went to sligtly different and more dramatic style. So dont know if it was succesfull, you can tell me how you like it. Or dislike:)

One could argue that such an unusual plane should have a more static representation where the entire plane is visible, but i think the perspective of this great composition brings the plane to life. It is right up in your face. You did a great job with the foreshortening on this. Very dramatic and exciting piece of work! :clap:

To be completely honest with you, I'm not sure I like this style as much as your older one. However, I'm also not sure I want to like it. I'm guessing that sounds really confusing.

Compared to all of your others, this piece seems quite cluttered. However, I feel like this business almost sets a proper mood as it is a painting of a war machine. I love all the textures among the water and haze and everything, and I love this piece.
