While travelling, I picked up a copy of "Paul Matt Scale Airplane Drawings," volumes 1 and 2. It occured to me that I'm doing something similar to what Matt did with regards to making accurate drawings of aircraft... differences being, his drawings were specifically for modellers, mine are illustrations for magazines/books. Would there be interest in Matt-style drawings for "projects?" I'm thinking:
Lockheed L-2000 SST
Boeing 2707 SST
Boeing X-20 Dyna Soar (with additional drawings of Transstage and Titan III)
Space Shuttle (not a project, but still...)
Project Orion 10-meter baseline
Project Pluto
North American X-15 (another non-project, but I have buckets of good data)
The drawings would be small enough as high-quality files that I could simply e-mail them, or I could have prints made. Electronic versions would cost maybe $2.00 or so, while prints would be substantially more (the Matt prints are about $20 for two to three 17X22 sheets). Is this a concept that has merit? Let me know...
