Thanks Indiajuliet!

And here's more of Polish Wings-related work.
http://www.shipbucket.com/forums/viewto ... 31#p114831

Vickers Warwick was a heavier brother of Wellington, but it's early development was plagued by the issues with underpowered engines (and some stability problems). When the propulsion troubles were more-or-less solved, so much time has passed already that heavy bomber niche in RAF was already filled with four-engined aircraft, so in the end only 16 were built as bombers and the rest of the series (total of 842 planes) were built as patrol, ASR and transport aircraft.

Great Britain, Vickers Warwick

Oh yeah, the Warwick! Not as well known as her little sister but honestly I think it could be my favourite Vickers prop-driven aircraft. Great work Eswube! :)

Nice work with XP-47H. :)

Next Polish Wings-related addition:
http://www.shipbucket.com/forums/viewto ... 31#p114831

Vickers Wellington - for long time the mainstay of the Bomber Command, and after it was replaced in that role by 4-engined bombers, an important contributor to Coastal Command's effort in Battle of Atlantic, as well as trainer, transport and special plane. One of the few aircraft that remained both in production and in front-line use from the first to last day of war.
To be honest, I'm not quite happy with them - sources were contradictory to each other regarding much of the detailing.

Great Britain, Vickers Wellington

Thanks! :)

@Naixoterk
Drawing these, especially roundels, code letters and the like, had very little in common with that pleasurable occurence You've mentioned. :(
