Lavochkins over L'vov

Post by :FI:Falcon » Wed Feb 02, 2005 4:29 am

My next project.

Image

I won't put you thru the painfull steps to get to this much cleaner 75% finished design

but I will warn all those poor souls who may unwittingly begin a bit of nose art on the La-7 ...

RUN, don't walk away from the mapping of the La-7.

The void was no winner either.

This will be Willie's ride when I put a lot more shading and detail into the art work and body.

Other graphics will probably include a mixture of Russian and Irish stuff.

Well, I flew this over to Willie's hanger today for approval.

Image

He may want a few changes in the details

but it's essentially done.

The VOID is much better than stock now

so if anyone would like to get their favorite old Lavochkin skins updated

I'll be happy to do so.
