Thanks again guys :)

Now that exams are finally over I can do some more drawing, starting with the Hale Galestorm Mk.1:

By the way if anyone has any good suggestions for names of potential future aircraft I'm all ears. With Hawker stealing most of the good ones I'm finding it harder and harder to come up interesting names...

Not bad, not bad at all. It has that Martin look.

Very interesting design, a cross of the Martin Maryland and Bristol Beaufort if you ask me. Does have a nice character to her though. If you ever find the time could I perhaps persuade you into drawing a type or two very similar?

As for names, what kind of names are you looking for?

Thanks :)

Sure denodon, just let me know what you're looking for and I'll give it a go. For the names I've been trying to stick to a weather theme so far, but I might have to look at other options.

Alright, I'll let you know.

Well if you're doing weather you could possibly expand to include atmospheric conditions or even something nautical related. I tend to name aircraft after their role or resemblance in looks or function to an animal.

Looks really good, a super-Blemhiem, a bit like the Wisley (aka Blenhiem V).

What a familiar feeling aircraft. Minor nitpicks from me would be using 12.7s in such confined spaces such as the nose and ventral hatch, a 1919 or similar rifle calibre weapon might be more applicable. Otherwise a fine drawing! :)

Thank you for the kind words :)

I did a bit more research and switched to M1919s for those positions as per your suggestion Blackbuck. I knew there was a size difference between the two but I didn't realise how massive the difference was :shock:
