What about the other option? Showcasing them in cafes. That's what everyone does in wellington. It's a win-win thing. The cafe has nice decoration, and you have free display. Doesn't require much effort either.

That has been one idea and asked at a couple Cafes, one, i know the guy very well, it a - the only technical bookshop in Christchurch , now gone as such and turned Cafe, I asked him if would be happy to display the drawings in such the fashion ... No No he said his wife is an artist and has no room on the walls .. she was standing behind him ... guess I figured who wore the trouser in that family laugh.gif

I was going to stop at Joe's Cafe just around the corner ... this is were I wanted a little colour, have a second incoming in that style , that is a good idea tho.

The drawing 'THUNDERBOLT STRIKE' Dan asked for will be a print, to get the original would have five different prints during the progress, this is all done to create the photo effect - so like all the others are print all in the same quality. .... I do like the violent feel .. no means dose it show's anything graphical - you see more on TV these days .. as you said ". but thats what went on ".

Well it show's also how shallow some people are or no idea of history, BUT at the print shop this afternoon, Jane mentioned 'Check this work out' .. I was a little longer in the shop since all the works print were on the memory stick .. fact is , this girl loved it !

In the brain case, this did pop up and I thought it is a Primary - B/W ... going to study the history, this was one aircraft I missed seeing with my own eyeballs, .. I'm thinking a T.13 in close with a flight of B(1)-12s peeling off ..... let my imagination go for it ! .. I think it has to be in colour ! .
