Challenge- SeaHawk rules :-wise
We will all cooperate during this project. Simply upload what you have done, work in progress and this is it. In the particular project everybody will be included in the cover of each other. We don't fight for life here, we do not make competition. No winner just nice friendly challenge.
This is the link for download the Hawker SeaHawk Mk.50 image

Every one will get sample of this drawings and it is in order to keep it for color artwork only!!! Please do not to forward this drawings to any else [even from this forum] or publish it anywhere!!! Profile you made is your property and you can use anywhere you want.
It is not important how you will make color artwork. Goal is to be made in the 2D digital way but no problem to make it in oil or acrylic painting if you prefer.
Working size - in your PC you always work in the publishing size. This mean A3 or A4 form, 300 DPI. Here is presented in the web size, this mean 72 DPI 800 pixel wide just for the BBCode linked images
Good Work :-tri

Thank you Santino for this nice start. Here I am- I accept this challenge and I will make it as oil painting. This background which you see is prepared for the other airplane subject but I have change my mind and decide to make it as Sea Hawk. But this does not mean that I would not also make one digital version too :-razz
-
Look nice No1 what tehnique is it.
-
Oil on canvas ;)
-
I have just finished pencil sketch of the airplane.
-
Just to give you some guidance: a colour shot of one of the Dutch MLD Seahawks.
'V' on the vertical tail surface meant it was based at Valkenburg naval air base near Rotterdam.
-
Valkenburg naval air base near Rotterdam.
Hmmm... not quite. Valkenburg is closer to The Hague, but to be more precise it's between Wassenaar and Katwijk.
-
Did anibody have some pictures from upper surfaces
-
I have just finished pencil sketch of the airplane.
Nice nice i have no doubt that this will be awesome
-
And what about your work :-think
-
In 1955 the German Department of Defence decided to purchase a total of 68 Seahawks for the German Navy. These numbers split into 34 maritime fighterbombers (Mk.100) and 34 maritime reconaissance aircraft (Mk.101). The aircraft were to equip the Marinefliegergruppen (later Marinefliegergeschwader) 1 and 2 and were to be used to defend the coastline and seaways to the Baltic Sea
In 1963 the Marineflieger began transitioning to the F-104G/RF-104G Starfighter what put an end to the Seahawks brief aera. Seahawks were officially disbanded in1965, allthough they continued to fly with MFG 2 until the end of 1966. Interestingly enough, the final Seahawk was delivered to the Marine after the official disbandment.
28 of the mothballed Seahawks were sold to Indian Navy, where they were also flown from aircraft carriers. India bought a total of 10 Mk.100 and 18 Mk.101.

Hope they are useful
I'm still thinking how to start :-red :-wall :-wall
-
And what about your work :-think
First i must to finished Jaguar corected thanks to Felixdk today if get enough time. I give all my best even I was never deal with airplane in that position.
-
So what do you think- why is this idea called challenge?
-
In spirit of challenge I posted this preparation for further work (still I dont decide which background to use that will be at the end.)
I chose to make british one. I found pictures on Airliners net like mfg.
-
Perfect start- that's the point!!!
-
Thats little mess around canopy determination and little play with shadow and lightning :)) :)) (PS: even my bosses just behind my shoulde :-wall :-wallr)
-
Please, note that the Mk.50 for the Dutch MLD had as characteristic difference that it was fitted with a Philips UHF R/T equipment.
The aerial mast is unique for this version!!
-
I added some new item like intake and exhaust detail and more light and shadow.
-
nice :-ok
-
Some markings and some more shadow light etc added...
-
bogsituacije,
Shadows and highlights are looking good and promising
I like it so far
In my opinion you should correct the big ace perspective apart from this ia very good job any way :-clap :-clap
-
I don't think that first work will be perfect but after this for sure will be more in action arts. Art above is good, still problem with dark shades, also problem with warping of the insignia but in general this look very nice :-ok Fact is that this is work from "ground zero" not as many do- repaint of the image :-evil So this is art :-clap
-
nice work bogsituacije :-ok :-wave
-
Thanks guys for comment :-love :-love. You right i must to repaire warping of markings and i do so :-red. Also big help to me is when you comment my work that make me better :-ok.
Thank i really enjoy in challenges i hope that will be every time like this :-tri :-tri. I'm happy to make something new and feel so good.
Please let me every time when do something wrong or when something can be better. :-ok
If I have enough time tonight after work i make improvements and try to add all insignia. You know me I never give up front of challenge :-salut :-salut
-
It's coming along nicely, bogsituacije. One nice thing about the normal side view profiles is that you don't have to worry about perspective. But then, without challenges, you don't learn new things.
-
"Impire Strike Back" :-joke here I am with my digital start. I have make two decision. First to make this in counter light, which is harder and second not to use stylus pen and in this way get the same chances as all of you.
-
Some markings and some more shadow light etc added...
Looking good :-ok
-
look nice No.1 :)) :-ok :-wave
-
You're off to a good start, No.1. Considering that you're the Moderator here, maybe you should say "The Umpire Strikes back" :)).
-
here is my sketch :-think
-
Nice work kid ;) For first time you have get good shape. Now you will add shadows in pencil :)) Which version you will make?
-
I'm trying another approach
Color Pencils, than scan the drawing to photoshop and then filter>Artistic>Color Pencil
at least I think I will go for another phase and see what happens
-
Metar- first you have to make all colors on the pencil drawings and then go in Filter-Brush strokes... and choose which one. After that you choose Pencil filter in Photoshop ;)
-
Dr. Lift,
Nice, the way you get ride of those thick black traces, hand made or did you use
any software?
-
No. 1
I will do it the way you are describing
Hey, this is fun :-jump
let us see what gives color pencils
In my opinion this is a nice way to understand shadows and highlights
-
No.1
Im not sure about version :-think
Metar
I don't use any software, its to complicate for me :)) its hand made !
-
My oil variant get shape just few moments ago.
-
your oil variant look really nice No.1 :-clap :-wave
-
its very nice :-jump
-
Airplane on the art get more highlights and cockpit details.
-
No.1 i like it very much :-love
I had little problems with proportions of markings, because I'm in hurry and i wanted to finish the plane :))
-
Yes, it is a little bit incorrect but if you compare it with your previous work this is great advantage :-wave
-
Dr.Lift,
I can assure you that when it comes to draw using only the hands your results are better than mine that´s for sure :-clap :-clap :-clap :-clap
No 1,
I like it very much special knowing that's not easy to paint with oil paints
I don't know what you have in mind as final picture, but if you add the idea of movement
your work will be graet :-ok
-
Metar- paint with oils are very easy!!! Work with water colors are problematical as well new coat can smudge the coat under it. Acrylic are also problem as well they dry fast. Oil- you paint shape and you the three full days to detail detail detail and make it as best as you can do.
-
Nº. 1
Maybe one of this days??
First I will talk about it with a friend that paints with oil just to see the way he paints (live)
and then how knows :))
-
Metar thanks :-salut
-
National insignia is painted as well numbers. But I am not satisfied with result. In day or two I will make repaint of the same subject :(
-
You should be happy with the results, it looks great to me :-ok
-
Here's mine answer to "challenge".
Two additional pictures are from Malta Air Museum, which I visited last year. There you can see a real Hawker Sea Hawk, with its beautiful pure lines.
-
nice work night fighter :-clap :-wave
-
Great advance in style and skill!!! Congratulation Night Fighter :-ok Only one detail- basic idea was to use drawings provided as base but anyway your work is nice :)
-
very skillful :-ok
-
My art is also over... :-wave
-
Excellent result, No.1.
-
Even though the Seahawk is one of my favourite post-war aircraft, I didn't manage to participate. I'm afraid you'll have to do with some airshow photos I took in the past couple of years:
