Christmas Jenny?

karrart · 5 October 2008, 06:30 PM

While muddling about on two Datafiles and a model box, I've been using my "spare" time to mess around with this thing- a lil' bitty painting of a Jenny in her hangar on Christmas Eve about to be snuggled in for the night. If I can fiddle it into shape, we may do Christmas cards from. I don't know yet!
I still don't get this "blog" thing, but under duress, I have posted this picture in a larger size with a few comments at:

Have a look if you want to!

Hi Robert:

Looking good, I love the aviation Christmas card idea now I have to work on mine.

Thanks.
I'm still working on getting the file "perfected" for making cards. I've also been messing with design ideas such as borders- simple stuff like that. Nothing to detract from the picture itself, only maybe enhance it.....maybe. It's a whole 'nother thing than just doing up a print on a plain white background.
And I finished another Datafile cover today..........

Hah! Same here. In our case, it's nothing but pure disorganiztiion and laziness. We manage every other other year! Maybe this project was a subliminal urging aimed at myself to maybe think about making this one of the years.
Plus, here in the local area, there've been a few inquiries about whether I have anything like Christmas cards available, so I guess the old "why not?" button went off in my head.
