Okay, after doing that German Viper, I needed some sort of balance. I know I did a WWII US Navy version really early on, but I wanted one done with my new setup. So what better theme to go with than the Flying Tigers? It's very similar to an actual paintjob on one of their P-40s, but with a few differences.
^ I did this just before I read your comment, nova! I was thinking we needed more decorations around here.
And I doubt I'll be doing a top view of the Raider. That thing was a pain in the rear just for the side view because of all the different panel colors.
Thanks! I really only do the top and side views, so you're out of luck if you're looking for more than that. I've got the Mk II and Mk VII somewhere in this thread, so you'll have to look through the pages to find them. For most of what's seen here, I use Corel Draw. But the updated/redone Mk II and currently in-work Mk VII are done using GIMP.
Speaking of the Mk VII, here's the latest on that:
This is going a lot faster than the Mk II because I discovered how to import my shapes from Corel Draw into GIMP!
Dang, I need to get my butt back in gear. How about something quick & easy to get back into the swing of things? I've always liked desert aggressor schemes, so I'm surprised I haven't done one until now!
Nice work on the Vipers man. I really like the varying paint schemes you have going on here. Just one question on how you get such detail in these renderings though, do you trace some of the details or are they pretty much strait freehand?

And I'd add the "Hell's Angel" girl to it as well

I guess I need to get my butt in gear and finish coloring up an aggressor scheme for my F-14EJ.
