Drawing a Wimpy

 

As a bit of light relief I've been sketching out the aircraft that provides most of the airborne activity in Maybe It's Tonight. The illustration will probably end up as part of the cover design.

Maybe It's Tonight follows the crew of Q for Queen, better known as "Queenie", a Mk IV Wellington based near Grimsby. In early 1942, RAF Waltham was home to 142 Squadron, who at that time were flying the relatively rare Mk IV, which used American Pratt & Whitney engines. There's more about the fate of the real Queenie and her crew here.
