This is something new for me, but I've been wanting to do some painting in gouache again (after many years) but figured that I could do the studies and final sketch in ArtRge and then print the result out as the underpainting/sketch for the gouache piece. This is an aviation piece based on the last operational flight of the Grumman F-14 Tomcat as it went into retirement. The image has a "Twilight Zone" type of twist as I've got the F-14D of VF-31" Tomcatters" being escorted over Long Island by an F3F-1 of VF-3, the first USN Grumman fighter to carry the famous "Felix the Cat" emblem. No idea as to how the final painting will turn out, but this is the final ArtRage comp.
