Military pilot pin up commission for microbrewery completed!

All done! The customer wanted a pin up painting of his wife with a military aviation theme for his craft brewing company called "Fly By Brewing Company." I painted this pinup mostly with airbrush to give it more of that classic WWII era feel. The wings behind her are the design of the US Army Air Corps pilot wings pin of the time that military pilots would wear on their uniform. I chose to abbreviate "Company" to "Co." to save space but also because certain words were usually printed in their abbreviated form in posters of the era. I hand lettered the words with a brush in a font typical of propaganda posters of the time. Now I think I'm gonna go have a beer. Stay tuned for two digital pin up commissions coming soon.

    Welcome to the blog! I try to keep up to date with it, alas this does not always happen. Stay tuned though as soon I will be uploading videos of my painting process as well as more photos of the in-between stages, not just the sketch and then the final painting. Please like on Facebook or tweet if you enjoy.
