        A repaint of my Vickers Super VC10 piece. Designed to a BOAC specification, the Vickers VC10 was one of the most beautiful airliners to fly the skies. The airplane featured quad Rolls Royce Conway jet engines mounted at the rear of the fuselage, a “T” tail and aerodynamically clean wings. The design offered excellent performance and a quiet cabin. The VC10 was loved by crew and passengers alike. The VC10 was one of the fastest subsonic airliners. As of 2018, a Vickers Super VC10 still holds the trans-Atlantic speed record for a subsonic flight.

                Nice Mark, a graceful plane.

                            Twin aft engines! A graceful plane. Nice job on the subtle perspective of the plane. And non redundant cloud pattern.

                                Thank you. There are actually quad rear engines.

                                        The VC-10 was, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful planes to ever grace the skies. I love this artwork; it shows the VC-10 in her best element. I especially like how you rendered the sky. May I ask what your medium is?
