Fightin’ Marines No. 110 Cover by Pat Boyette
From April 1973, another great example of Pat Boyette‘s clear, simple and powerful drawing style with a Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero and a US Grumman F4F Wildcat flying over a US aircraft carrier under attack.
With a nice-quality scan of the original art to work with, I was able to get in there quickly and create a new version of a moment in the Battle of Midway during the Second World War.
