Description
This year is the 80th Anniversary of World Speed Record which was established by the famous Italian aircraft Macchi MC72 designed by a very gifted Italian designer Mario Castoldi. In 1934, pilot Francesco Angello on this machine reached a speed of 709.22 km/h. On this occasion I present to You my most recent work illustrating that event. The image was made in Digital Painting and its original format is 100x70cm.

Hi everyone!
Thank You very much for nice words .
I have to confess that I'm not such a master in rendering - this poster is 100% digital painting.

Beautiful graphic. I love the M.C.72 and you've definitely done it justice. It's evocative of the old aviation posters from the Golden Age of aviation. The black text at the top doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the image, though. I'd recommend you just cut it completely, then the image would make for a fabulous poster. The colors are fantastic and the tricolor stripe at the bottom is very tasteful.

Thank You comradeloganov!
You are right about this black text, it doesn't seem to fit there... I'll probably try to change it or remove it completely... stay tuned to see the result!
