Another small drawing that occupied a bit of my time last week and this weekend. This particular mustang is called the Impatient Virgin?. I had a hard time getting the lettering for the name to show as yellow, because the white base pigment keeps lifting when I try to lay yellow on top of it. So I'm just not going to keep fucking with it, as I'm quite happy with it otherwise.
Nope, not a question--the question mark is actually painted in the plane's name. I picked another one that I found a nice picture of to draw, and then was able to look up a bit of the information regarding the plane while I was drawing. This one got to see combat and survive it, and was apparently responsible for downing three FW-190's on a particular mission. The mission was known as the Kassel Mission, but I haven't had the time to read up much on that particular happening just yet. But, I digress--this particular plane survived combat and was unfortunately crashed in a field during a training exercise in June of 1945. It remained there until 2002, and excavation was completed in 2005. Restoration was completed in 2008, and I believe she still flies to this day.
This is another one I hope someday I catch at an airshow.
