Comet Dh88 - daily sketch

Click thumbnail to enlarge

Encore le comet...mais pas très content du dessin , pas le feeling avec ses lignes sexy sous cet angle.
At present I will try to write in english a bit more..
Still the comet but i am not very happy with this sketch because i haven't find the good feeling with her sexy lines.
tomorrow i will try with a rough which is more close to the "top-side view".

Le sketch du jour sera mis en ligne demain (j'ai la flemme de scanner à minuit et demi..) avec un P38 et un Lockheed Electra.
