Look great, I especially like the Whale Rider.
Are they available in higher resolution? I would love to use one or two of them as my desktop background, if it's ok with you of course

Hello Nick.
Do you use models from Flight Sim? I posted a thread about "Screenshots as Art" and wondered if anyone was using FS to create aviation art. Do you make prints as well? Thank you for sharing your art. It's pretty awesome.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your question and for sharing your feedback and comments.
((These are not 3D Models or Game Model snapshots.))


All of my artwork is created from a blank canvas in High Definition- digitally drawn and painted and researched.
I also create and supply a lot of my artwork illustrations for the major manufacterers / airliners / collectors and
other aviation organisations around the globe since 2003.

All artworks have been created on a large scale up to 100cm length.
All artworks created by myself.

I shall check out the screenshots art thread as well...thanks..

Best Regards,
Nick Knapp

Hi all

Kevin, agree with your comments.

The artwork is just fantastic. I would love to be able to do that myself, not to sell prints but just to play around on the PC.
I've ordered my Highland Express print. Amazed that Nick was able to produce it so quickly!

Excellent colour and detail. And a 3-holer to boot! Kudos to you as well for illustrating your love of aviation in such a beautiful manner for us to enjoy. You're another asset to this board.

agree with your comments.
Gary, those comments apply to you as well. Your screenshots are amazing and beautiful. Many have stirred memories and feelings I've forgotten about. You definately make this website a better place.

Hi Kevin ,
Thanks for your feedback and comments.
Yes aviation and flying I have great enthusiasm for and I enjoy sharing my work with as many enthusiasts as possile!
I am looking forward to heading down to the Farnborough Airshow this year. Thie highlight of the year!

**Apparently according to Boeing insiders the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and the Boeing 747-8 F are going to be displayed side by side at the show . I believe for a limited number of days only...**
That is only if both their test-flight programmes all go according to plan....


Some Great Photographic Opportunities and also another great place/event to promote myself and network with like minded enthusiasts...

All the Best,
Nick Knapp

Nice work!
However, I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite-they all look pretty darn good.

Wodnerful works of art ... Nick!!! I would have loved to see Paithani, Animals and Trees etc rendered in the same style!

And I wondered if you could do a Singapore Airlines 50th Anniversary B747-412 9V-SMZ in a similar fashion? Maybe you should consider printing them on nice art paper and selling them (printing them only when you get orders).

These would make great framed art pieces for aviation die-hards.

I find editing photos both interesting and fun but I wouldn't even know where to start when it comes to your sort of work! Well done mate, truly amazing stuff.
Btw, do you do to order, like G-HIHO for Gary?
TIA
