Step back into the dawn of aerial combat with “Callsign: Ace’s Wake”, an original gouache painting capturing the formidable front of a WWI-era SPAD XIII. Rendered in dramatic grayscale and thoughtfully framed, this piece honors the raw grit of early fighter pilots—those who flew with nothing but canvas, wood, and courage.
The aircraft’s twin machine guns and round cowling loom large, offering a striking perspective as if you’re walking up to the bird just before takeoff. With weathered terrain in the background and a hint of history in every brushstroke, this painting blends reverence and realism for aviation collectors and history buffs alike.
Medium: Original gouache on paper
