Canadian CF-18’s have often visited our local airbase at Leeuwarden. The visits were more frequent during the cold war but even recently they have participated in ex. Frisian Flag. #Canada #Cf-18 #ProCreate #aviation #avgeek #aircraft

I used to work for a catering company so I did quite a bit of food photography. Lot’s of fun though I only ever was ok-ish at it. #food #photography #bread

It was a bit of a climb, especially after misjudging the depth of a puddle and sinking knee deep in the mud. But it was wonderful view near the Old Man of Storr on the Isle of Skye. #landscape #Skye #Scotland #Photography

Swedish Hunters are some of the coolest Hunters! An illustration I did in photoshop of a very dirty Swedish Airforce J-31 #aviation #photoshop #avgeek #flyvapnet #hunter

Still working away on the Spitfire in Blender. My main goal is to have fun and end up with something that looks like the subject when it's done. I'm still having fun and you can tell what it is so far, succes! #blender3d #blender #Spitfire #aviation

The essence of the Waddensea, narrow channels of water through sandbars and mud planes. The area is an important breeding ground to birds, seals and fish. #waddenzee #unesco #landscape #aerial #nature

Across North-west Europe there are cemetaries like this one near Holten. Buried in them are young Canadians who gave their lives for our freedom. In troubled times it is good to remember that you have friends who appreciate what you did for them. #canada #Netherlands #friends #sacrifice

Situated in the north of The Netherlands is the Waddensea. It is a large tidal plane with sandbars and (temporary) islands. Occasionally flat-bottomed ships will intentionally beach themselves on a sandbar to explore nature. #unesco #waddenzee #landscape #photography

Working on some exhausts for my Spitfire in Substance Painter and Blender. Nice overall but they are turning out a tad lighter then I'd like and am seeing in Painter. Need to figure out why that is happening! #Blender #Substance #Spitfire #Aviation

A Fouga Magister 3D model I am working on in Blender whenever the motivation to do so strikes me. I am going for a Irish Air Corps machine first. #blender #Magister #Aviation #art #3D

One of my favorite aircraft, the Pilatus PC-7. I drew this side profile of a RNLAF one in #photoshop a few years back. #pilatus #aviation #art #PC-7 #KLu

Oban harbour in western Scotland. Such a nice place! I shot this panorama there a decade ago while on vacation. #Oban #Scotland #Travel #panorama

One of Lockheed’s finest designs, the F-104 Starfighter, seen in a training role for the post-war west-German airforce. I drew this in #procreate on an iPad with a Apple Pencil. #aviation #starfighter #luftwaffe

F-16’s at Leeuwarden are now mostly a thing of the past, this one was landing there after a Frisian Flag 2019 mission. Now it is mostly F-35’s.

A once in a lifetime experience, seeing a group of Orca of the coast of the Vestmannaeyjar islands in Iceland. #Orca #wildlife #Iceland

A profile illustration I made in #photoshop of a Minnesota Air National Guard F-16 that visited our local airbase for Ex. Frisian Flag 2019. #aviation #F-16

A ProCreate drawing I did of a J-34 Hunter of the Swedish Air Force. These machines used to visit our local airbase on their delivery flights from the factory in England. #aviation #ProCreate #AvGeek #Flyvapnet

A Spitfire with twin counter rotating propellors warms up its engine at Duxford prior to taxiing out. The pilot is trying to see what is happening in front of his aircraft over the long nose.

An illustration I drew of a CH-47F CAAS for the RNLAF's 298 Squadron. It will be used as part of a squadron print and also on a large board for the first aircraft's arrival. This illustration was drawn in #Photoshop with a little help from #Illustrator
