After a bit of playing about, I finally got the composition to how I was happy with it and roughed it onto the canvas. This is 24x18 inches and will be done in oils, commencing later this week after I've got a couple of training courses I have to do out of the way.
The flash on my camera is crap, but you can see enough of it. You can also see I have sketched the airfield they were doing a recce of when the dogfight kicked off in there, and added some poplar-lined roads to give it that French feeling. The Albatros DV Mannock was after is in there too, which will be one from Jasta 30:
