Very fine pencil artwork, Douglas! The two national insignias look great, along with all the other markings on the Tiger.

Nice, man that looks awesome and it's impressive that it's done in pencil.. Any chance it's a predecessor to the F4 Phantom? It looks like it could be part of the evolution to that design.
Douglas Castleman replied:
Thank you, John, I tried to just show a sunlight ocean below, instead of the usual clouds and sky. The F4 was a McDonnell design, and that evolved from their earlier, underpowered F3H Demon jet. Although not the most famous jet fighter ever, the Tiger was certainly among the most attractive designs, I think.
