DescriptionOriginal WW2 Style Pin-Up titled "P38 Lightning" by Dave Nestler.This painting is part of photographer Michael Malak's "Wings of Angels" book project. Size: 20x26" model: Tala Marie medium: acrylic on illustration board Signed by artist in lower right hand corner Book description... A beautifully presented, two-volume collection, uniquely chronicling the story and history of the most recognizable aircraft of World War II and the pinup girls whose images graced these legendary warbirds. Flying into combat with our boys, inspiring and providing our U.S. soldiers with sweetly seductive reminders of home, these pinups are a reminder of the All-American good life GIs were fighting for. For the first time, Michael Malak has merged classic 1940s style Hollywood photographs in black and white and sepia recreations for the vintage-minded, as well as full color HDR (High Dynamic Range) photographs for the modern art lover. This book takes the viewer through the history of these magnificent warbirds and the role they played in World War II, and provides detailed, factual information about each of them courtesy of the Yanks Air Museum, home of these exquisite warbirds. Several world renowned pinup artists of today, such as Greg Hildebrandt, Lorenzo Sperlonga, Dave Nestler, and others have contributed their time and talent to take part in this project, providing original artwork for Wings of Angels, in the tradition of legendary pinup artists Gil Elvgren and Alberto Vargas.

Classy pin up! It fits with the time period of these war machines with a smooth and sleek look to remind the boys what they're fighting for back home.
