Well sounds like everyone is busy. I hope your move goes well Gillian , I appreciate the stress it causes we moved every three years or so when I was in the RAF. I haven’t done any sketches as I’m in the middle of painting what is to be the Christmas card sent out by the staff to the beneficiaries of the RAF Benevolent Fund. I was surprised and really pleased to be asked to paint a card for them, it’s a charity that I fully support as much as I can. I don’t want to spoiled the surprise so will include only the basic sketch at this time. It’s a winter snow scene set in early morning.I decided to keep with traditional aircraft  scenes , will do two  allow Indy a choice of card to be printed.

You should post the stages Paul. It will be interesting to see it coming along and I’m sure people won’t get bored of it. It’s a great project you are working on and I’m sure we will all be excited to see the finished version.

Congratulations Paul, love to see the progress on this.  Gillian I hope your move goes smoothly.  Not much from me I’m afraid been doing an almighty clear out at home and getting rid of rubbish from our loft. So did a few warm up exercises and paint doodles yesterday.  The little autumn scene was a wet in wet practice.

Beautiful colours Hilary. Bet he is spoiled rotten at the moment Katy, hope you have many years of fun together. I’m really quite advanced with the card , it will be printed gloss and be 21x15 mm so I’m told. I have sent several pictures of the stages and mad changes as I’ve gone along . Decided to have just the one aircraft, and set at the edge of a woodland dispersal. This is one of the basic drawing with base colours it’s changed a lot since this.
