SKETCHING AT 600 MILES PER HOUR
So Ben Balistreri planned a trip to the Chino Air show last weekend and said we were going to look at cool planes and eat like kings. I brought my sketch pad and attempted to sketch planes as they were taxiing, taking off, flying , and landing. The show was awsome. At one point there were 26 World War 2 planes (Including Japanese Zeros) all in the air at the same time. It was an insane sketching challenge. I never had time to look down at my paper so these sketches are as raw as they come. Doing a blind sketch of an F18 flying bye at 600 miles per hour will loosen you up real quick!
