  • Ladies and aircraft

    Did some work this summer putting together a calendar for an air museum. Thought you guys would enjoy it.

    Awesome pics. Is that a Hellcat or a Bearcat in the third frame? The area behind the cowl makes me think it might be one of the turboprop Bearcat based planes they built.

    Why does the P47 look so small? All the footage I have of them, and the pics I have taken personally shows them to be larger. Is it a 3/4 scale plane? Maybe its just a 6'5" guy doing the painting, or perhaps perspective.

    This is the one I shot in Charleston back in 00 before the airshow we had on base. Sorry, no ladies, because you dont want to see my ex wife.

      I think it looks that way because of some very good photoshopping?

      Not that I mind, I really like the pictures. Very tasteful, nice to see Ladies being sexy in something more than a g-string.

      I'd buy that calendar!
      Of all the paths you take in life - make sure a few of them are dirt.

          It's actually a Wildcat in that image. P-47 is full size and fully functional (as is all of the aircraft in these shots). Might look small because the guy is 6'4" on top of a 3-step ladder. And the gal is 6' tall too. Plus a smidge of perspective distortion.

          Photoshop was used extensively, but I assure you I didn't mess with the size of anything except for the paintbrush. It was massive.

          You can get the calendar here: http://www.tillamookair.com/

          Thank you very much. The styling is supposed to be very classic and classy with the colors and everything else harkoning back to technicolor photos.

              Yeah, they all have (used to have) a great face for radio.
