Thank you for all the help, here is the drawing- 'Findlay's Revenge'

Fl/Lt RF Boyd of 602 Sqn attacked a few 110's on Sunday the 18th of Aug 1940..no apparent results { according to his combat reports }

After shooting at some Ju87's and claiming one destroyed, Finlay Boyd climbed to form up on some Hurricanes...unfortunately they were 109's...which promptly chased him back to the coast. The 109's turned back except one, Finlay when into a climbing turn and got onto it's six, closing to 70 yds , he shot it down just off the coast of the Isle of Wight. Jg 27 lost 6 aircraft that day, but the only one that I had code letters for was I Gruppe Jg27 109e4 9+, piloted by Lt G Mitsdoerffer, The Luftwaffe pilot survived the attack and became a POW.
The drawing will show the action just after the attack, as Boyd fly's over the stricken 109, just above Ventnor and Whitecliff.
Composition below and the final drawing will be the usual 2b and 4b pencil on smooth 300gsm card.



After about 50 hours , here is the final 'Findlay's Revenge'
