Spitfire31 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Just launched: http://shigeokoike.com/ Everybody is, of course, familiar with Shigeo Koike's work for Hasegawa. Here''s much more and you can also buy large format prints for reasonable money. Well worth a visit, for inspiration for flying dioramas or just pure enjoyment. /Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Just found it too. fantastic to see his stuff freed from box art proportions - the Macchi 202 over Valetta and the Barrucudas peeling off for a dive bomb attach are 2 that stand out for me - but thats like admiring 2 diamond sin a huge pile of diamonds!! I like the way you can spot zoom over the pics to see the detail too. Lovely site! Jonners mind you this aint a bad one either!! http://koikeshigeo.com/artwork?KIK019 Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-32 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I have his Gannet print, absolutely superb piece of work - maybe Hasegawa will produce a Gannet so that it can grace the box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got that one too - it's stunning (but then, so is all his work!!) It'll look great next to the Lightning print when I finally get round to framing them!!

colin Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 He is a true master, he has this ability to put so much into his pictures with the backgrounds etc but never distracting from the subject matter, the sort of pictures you just want to sit and stare at and still find details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
