time for something a little old-school - there's something so wonderfully imperfect about these older style illustrations

I always preferred figurative subjects rather than vehicles but after painting the first box cover I did this follow up.

My intention was to crop the image ,even parts of the tank itself really closely on a box cover and I left a huge amount of bleed surrounding the vehicle to enable it to be used in other formats. This was cheerfully ignored for the most part.
