Authors: Nicolas Trudgian and Colin Smith New Copy Size: 11 x 10 inches - Hardback - First Edition Voucher value: £10
Publisher: Flying Pencil Publications
Most aviation art collectors will know Nicolas Trudgian primarily for the excellent portfolio of limited edition prints he has built up since his first release back in 1990. In the first two books released by Nicolas his pencil work was used to support the main paintings but in this third volume his drawings are the stars.
The Nicolas Trudgian painting style is one of great precision and attention to detail combined with the ability to use light in such a way that brings his aircraft to life. His backgrounds receive equal care and often take as long to paint as the aircraft. All these attributes are here in this superb collection of his drawings; all new images, mostly drawn over the last two years and each executed with meticulous precision.
Very highly recommended.
