Post "Airlift" pointellism

Another example of what I do for a living. This scene depicts a C5 "Galaxy" aircraft that is in a fully knelt position, taking on fuel as Air Force and Marine Corps flightcrew upload a presidential helicopter known as "Marine One". I've been fortunate enough to see many parts of the world in support of missions such as this as a flying crewchief but I have to tell you...I'd much rather be working full time as an artist. Oh well...someday!

Great drawing! Brought back some memories. I put in some time in the USAF and worked for Lockheed for a while.

Thank you sir but I really need to learn to "loosen" up.
