Ad Astra......

Very interesting, I was looking at the last photo for a possible painting but I'm now wondering about the first one
It's a beautiful aircraft which like the spitfire has no bad angles
"Ad Astra" would make a nice title.

It's what I do for a living, Terry, but
it's your's!

GRATIS!

You knew you came on this "Forum"
for a reason!

And Vulcan needs a "Paint Job" anyway...........

That first one's a case of Goldilock's
Porridge!

Just Right!

Cheers Dan a signed print will be on it's way you as soon as the paint job's done
I don't want to seem nosey Dan, but what is it you do for a living?

Just had a brain wave and looked at your profile, with that title I would have to say you are indeed a poet.

Mister Jones::::::::::

Well, the thing I do that relates to dreaming
up a title for your yet-to-be Vulcan painting
is the consulting work I do for small to medium
sized companies that need HELP to define
themselves in the marketplace.

I do other things as well like book editing and
teaching writing skills, but mostly I just have
IDEAS! It's a curse, and I wake up in the middle
of the night a lot, but it's what I do mostly......

I receive telephone calls for my services when
some business owner or manager asks: "Who
was that Guy that came in with all that stuff
about what we have to start doing to stay in the
game?"

THEN I get the phone call........

I and my clients have had lots of success, btw.......

A Catch Phrase is the same as an Artwork Title.

It just comes to me..............

I've heard the best ideas come at night. I had a friend who used to wake up at night and write entire songs, bloody good songs too.
I had a dream once, some guy was giving me grief, calling me names and in my dream I came up with the perfect come back. I woke up straight after and grabbed a pen to write it down. When I got up in the morning I remembered the note I'd written and read it back, it said "The same to you"

Keep pen or pencil by your bed and
some paper.........

You won't regret it!

If, say, you had 2 prints of said Vulcan how much would I have to raid my piggy for? (cheeky sod I know)

I'm looking forward to some updates as you go please!

[Terryjones]

Before doing the above Vulcan I thought I'd have a go with another photo taken at Southport. It isn't a very good photo but I liked the light on it. I should be able to make a start on the intended Vulcan very soon

Thank You, TJ.......

[Terryjones]

Thanks for your comments guys, I'm really pleased you all like it It's the first jet I've ever painted, the Mig-21 being the second. Now I've had a taste of these beautiful aircraft I can see many more being painted. Plans for another Vulcan are being made and a E.E Lightning is most certainly on the list.

Thanks again, I really appreciate you taking the time to have a look at my work.

Cheers,

Terry

[Xplumberlives]

Personally, I would like to see you paint a HARRIER!

[Dan4th]

Better BRACE yourself, Terry.........

Everyone's got their Pet Aircraft!

You'll be at it for twenty YEARS if
you listen to everyone!

Oh, and I LUV the tiny wisps of exhaust
you used for 558!

Nice light touch there......
