This is a tough job, as the subject is something which I am not familiar - aircraft!
So much different from portraits and caricatures.
This is a farewell gift for their boss.
Usually, my clients will request a caricature or portrait of the subject, with aircrafts in the background.
In this case, this is different.
They need a F-16, F-15 and a helicopter above the sea, which means the focus is on them. Details are important to them here.
I proposed to have it illustrated digitally, so that any changes can be done (easier when compared to traditional medium), if there is a need.

There are still many changes made to F-15 here (images above and below). They could be so minor that you may not notice at this scale. The client is very particular with the details.

The more obvious will be the sea and the whirlpool below the helicopter.
