468 - S.E.5 Sketch


Lately, I've been immersing myself in the lore of the World War One fighter plane.  The stories are by turns beautiful and tragic, exhilirating and horrifying. 

I made a quick sketch of a British S.E.5, which strikes me as one of the more iconic-looking fightercraft, apart from those of the "Red Baron's Flying Circus", including the famous red Fokker triplane.  Well, two wings are easier to draw than three, although I feel that I butchered their perspective in this case.
