My name is Earle

WOW- that is really great work. Can you put some more, larger pix up here? I want to get a closer look. Really nice.

Nice job Earl. Just hope he's not the pilot, I mean with the Stars and Stripes in his hand .

Sam

Thanks I am back on here after a layoff I will put up more soon.......

Sam Thank you ,He is the pilot of a B-17 Tondalayo 422 NLS He's holding a leaflet, scanned from reference sources ,that he dropped on Holland . I researched endlessly on the plane and Lt Col. Earl Aber,He is as accurate as I could get him.

Nice job. Looks great.

krow113 Excellent work! The leather looks real and if you took the picture outdoors in a suitable back ground it might pass as real in B+W!

Thanks.........

Thank you I used my black leather m/c jacket to figure out that leather is glossy in the recesses and flat on the wear points ,the opposite of other material..A good trick to try if leather is tryin' you. I used flat and semi gloss clear ,blending them into each other.It seems more pix would be good Ill try to get some more up....................
