Inspired by the Hawker Typhoon MN235 on display at the RAF Museum near London. Looking into the plane’s history, there is a chance I may have seen it at the Smithsonian many many years earlier when I was living in Virginia and a frequent visitor to the NASM. Apparently, this is the only surviving complete Hawker Typhoon and was presented to the RAF Museum in commemoration of the RAF’s 50th Anniversary in exchange for a Hawker Hurricane.
I really liked how the skin texture progresses and how I was able to gather up some of the details from multiple resource photos to determine what was hidden in the shadows of the original pic I had taken inside the museum. Look closely at the slideshow below and you’ll see even more to appreciate.
This beautiful high-quality giclee print is mounted in a custom 10×20 matte black metal frame protected behind non-glare acrylic and acid-free foam board backing .
