Drawing of Martin- Baker MB2

[Gray]

Drew this plane about 4 years ago for some other work. Thought I'd show it in a larger different format.

Fantastic job Gray! Any chance you could enlighten us as to how this was done?

Cheers,

Thank you, David.

Thanks Kostas, You're right it didn't get accepted, but the excellent MB5 did come from this.

Thanks Homer, this is drawn in vector, which is just a form of graphics. I start with the base drawing and add shading, colour, details etc, similar to using traditional art tools. Probably closest to coloured pencils as vs raster which is digital painting. I use both types of graphics in my work. I've shown some of the steps below for another piece of work.

Cheers.

It was built and flown as a private venture by Martin-Baker and then bought by the Air Ministry.
