Luft-Marine Art 1947-ish Reprised

I remember these pictures, I loved them :)
Thanks ;) If you'd seen them when I had my graphic arts website up June 1997 - June 2000 y'all's memory be 20/20 photographic! I'd stopped artistry work in 2013 to finish-up building scale models, may resume artistry work in 2022 starting with the original 1942 twin-tail CONVAIR B-36 design with manned gun turrets assuming the eyeballs are up to the task.
 
That makes me think of some Tupolev 64 artwork I saw back in the late ‘90s. I had WebTV and couldn’t save anything. The art inspired me to finish my Project 64 scratchbuild!

Gawd, hope it wasn't this horrible thing I'd whipped-up c.1996 with Micrografx Draw 5:

Oh BTW, did this combat action piece in 2008 with Corel Graphics Suite X3:

OMG! That’s you!! Wasn’t there another one featuring the double canopy version?
Not art I'd rendered, that I'd seen was early Tupolev OKB rendering, mine's later "B-29-style" nose. All art above was on my 1997-2000 arts website, this just when realistic appearing aero renderings we're all familiar with were coming on line, my art is 2D vector classic portraiture , extremely tedious & time consuming work!

Thanks for posting image saves of my art renderings Zizi6785, some of them I'd accidentally erased off my Iomega JAZ drive over 20 years ago well as some inadvertently erased months ago as well. Several of them apparently came off my computer arts page active June 1997 - June 2000 just when 3-D art by others was coming on line me choosing to stay with the 2-D vector kind with Micrografx Draw & CorelDraw. My last composition rendered in 2013 is still up on Luft46:

Bear in mind my art was deliberately created to mimic that of 1950s-1960s scale model "action artists" particularly Joseph (Jo) Kotula's (1910-1998) for the 1964-1966 AIR LINES (FROG) kits sadly never being able to convincingly draw spinning propellers. As stated above I'd very much love to render art of the original 1942 CONVAIR B-36 design & center line-half wooden mock-up but likely won't given would have to buy & relearn software to do so, but who know, maybe "the bug will bite" again someday!
