I didn't do the book renders, these were one of several done by a third-party concept artist as part of a pitch to acquire the pub rights to what I've been working on for several years now. Still have lots to do before going forward with regards to V.1 and just thought I'd toss this in here for anyone interested in WWII aviation.

Looks amazing.
As the resident guy who works as an exec for a publisher, what are your intentions?
Oh! Whoops, noted the Penguin.
Day late and a dollar short I see.
Is that your name, "Hunter Ott", on the cover Det?
I love spec books like that, especially on WWI and WWII aviation. Reminds me of those tiny 'Concise Color Guides' that I bought around 1988 or so on aircraft from the world wars. The detail is amazing.
I love these kind of books as well. Anything WW2 aviation, tanks, small arms, artillery, etc. Best of luck to you!
Look very good!!!

That was part of the render/pitch/concept. Penguin showed interest and then up and disappeared like a fart in the wind. Still waiting on my agent (prior-service bro-dude Marine) to get back to me on that status. And while I love the renders this guy did, it is far too broad. My series focuses on the 109 only. So that needs correcting as the book seems to indicate that the entirety of the Luftwaffe on the Eastern Front is the subject matter.
Day late and a dollar short I spose.

Yep. The family dropped the von after immigrating to the States and to NZ. For obvious reasons. Why, have we meet?
Sorry for the low-res JPG version, its all I can post due to NDA's.

No, we haven't met, I was just curious. Also it sounds awesome, like an anime name. :Nerd: :ThumbsUp:
Some part of my brain now wonders if you could float a deal with DCS or the IL-2 publishers, to offer the tomes as an adjunct series for their games.
