Sometimes you capture a moment in time where they might be in the middle of something and we just see the freeze frame, I assume that's what I'm seeing here. On the right I see a lady eating a sandwich I think. There is a guy in the middle in pink, his arms are up blocking his face, yet others are peering right in, it makes you wonder what he saw. A guy on the left with the green shirt looks really tired.

I added task lights in the plane as I'm pretty sure they had them on to work. The plant was pretty huge, just plane after plane in rows. You can see some completed ones on the right.

The B-17F was renowned for its durability, long-range capabilities, and substantial payload capacity, making it a valuable asset in aerial combat. Its design incorporated multiple defensive machine guns to protect agains...

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
