Here's the final sketch, now on to the final pastel, but only after I complete the portrait of the kids.

609 Spitfire Update

Here's an update with some atmospheric shading and tones added for some heightened subtlety. Will add some bombers in the background, mustn't forget the prop, the serial number, and perhaps a few indications of panel lines, although this is very small, 7" wide.

Commissioned Portrait Update

Here's an alternate version with a spring-like backdrop as the client wasn't sure about the house. In this case a couple of different references were used and altered with photoshop filters. If he likes it I will go ahead and render it in pastels.

609 Squadron Spitfire (colour version)

A couple of in-progress shots of a small acrylic colour study that will be the basis for a pastel. I had done the same scene previously this year in pencil. It depicts the Spitfire Mk Ia flown by Pilot Officer JC Dundas of No 609 Sqn, 1940.
