Aircraft Profiles
Collection of some F-15 profiles I’ve done, most of them as a tribute to the 32nd TFS ‘Wolfhounds’.
32nd TFS was an US Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) unit once based at Camp New Amsterdam (CNA) / Soesterberg Air Base, The Netherlands. I’ve created a few, as accurate as possible, side views of the F-15A, C and D Eagles. Most of them were based at CNA from 1978 till 1994. As a kid I loved watching these aircraft operate from Soesterberg Air Base. At the time prints were available of these but I always thought they could have been a lot better in quality and detail. Now, years and years later I was able to create/illustrate these jets exactly how I wanted with as much detail as I wanted. I had the experience in software (Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop) and with some help of former pilots, crew and ‘Wolfhounds’ enthousiasts I was able to use a lot of reference material to create these. Some former ‘Wolfhounds’ pilots and crew even have framed prints of these hanging in their homes which is a huge compliment. Thanks to all Americans who served at CNA!
After some CNA designs I was commissioned to draw some F-15’s from other units as well. Are you interested in a custom F-15 design of a specific jet and lay-out including your unit’s info, patches and badges? E-mail me for info.
Here is an overview of the F-15’s I’ve done so far:
