Bomber Art

This piece was inspired by my love of old world war II aircraft and the art work that adorned the nose's of the fighter's and bomber's of that era, getting one of these from an original plane is costly and next to impossible making one was the only I would ever have one for myself, this one I made for my nephew who is in the navy and works on navy planes and the ordnance that they carry. All my bomber art pieces start out with a wooden buck and then are covered in a thin aluminum sheeting, small nails are put in to give it a riveted look then age with flat black paint then the art is applied and aged.
