Well, I'm certainly excited about the subject of this preliminary sketch - it's the B-25B flown by Jimmy Doolittle during the April 1942 bombing raid on Japan. The sketch itself is almost laughable - at least to people who know what a B-25 looks like.
This summer, I get to meet this airplane's co-pilot, Richard Cole and need to get the bird done & printed by then. Being that I'm not too good at bombers, the work is being started early to ensure time for many re-dos.
It's late, I'm tired...and will post more about the "Doolittle Raid" and Lt. Cole as I post updates on the art. But in the event that you're reading this and not quite sure about the historic scope of this bomber, please stay tuned for a story that is over-the-top exciting.
