Cheers Peter

My pleasure. It's really impressive to see how your artwork increases steadily in sophistication with each new volume.

I'm intrigued by the mysterious Wn 19 - it does just look like someone's simplistic sketch of a '109, so it'll be really interesting to see if any firm information ever surfaces...

All the best

Rowan

Many thanks JPTRR, nice to see you are still around site.

Rowan, should I learn of anything more on the Wn 19, I'll definitely share any findings. I'm sure there's a lot more to be discovered.

Great work as always Peter, It's always nice to see a different take on the colour schemes and / or just to see these projects in colour. I do like the little Skoda 257 and the Fw-222.004, and then you tease with the last line 'Italian' for Vol.10, I can't wait, Re.2007 perhaps

Wonderful stuff, as usual, Pater

Do you have any profiles of aircraft that saw combat during WWII (Spit, 109 etc)?

Many thanks, I'm just enjoying myself really.

Luciano, Re2007....we'll see .

Mal.
I did do some profiles of some British aircraft that saw actual combat. It was years ago now but they were published on site.
I've not done any more since, apart from some early jets, as there are so many accomplished artists out there that cover these already, I've tended to seek areas that are less well populated if you see what I mean.

Tah muchly

"....it was the first jet combat aircraft, the first twin-jet aircraft and the first jet aircraft to go beyond mock-up stage." not so "first" considering and other constructors of jet airplanes before 1941
