You need to ask Tom at tjtechart@comcast.net. I suspect we haven't met the
minimum number of pre-orders yet or Tom would have posted something.

Subject: RV-10 Cutaway Drawing
I don't know how many folks have followed the Cutaway RV Drawing thread on
VAF. (http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=38927) I have
taken an interest and wanted to share with the RV-10 community to gather
more interest.
Here is an example of the RV-7A Slider:

To get a RV-10 version commissioned and started, Tom needs a demonstrated
interest from the RV-10 community. I'm interested in getting one and I
thought I would post here to encourage others that may be interested to
order as well.
To order, just send an email to tjtechart@comcast.net and let Tom know which
model you want and whether you want a limited edition or an open edition
print. If you want an open edition, let us know if you want an 18x24 or
24x36. No money is collected until the project starts.
The following is an overview of what's involved in the project and the
different types of prints available.
Research (approximately 50 hours including travel)
Access to engineering plans and actual RV's. I have already contacted Vans'
Aircraft who have given me a thumbs up "go", and they are willing to provide
access to plans. I'm confident there are enough RVs in the Portland area for
final close-up access to a finished plane(s).
Hand created draft (about 200 hours)
Pencil the detailed draft. This is the phase that makes my art unique. I do
this phase by hand because it adds a unique perspective and fine art
quality-like Leonardo DaVinci. Also because it's more like building the real
plane, which is essentially what I must do to create these images.
Final details and painting (about 100 hours)
Load the draft into the computer for completion and painting.
Send to the Printer.
Tom will bill the retainer through PayPal once the required number of orders
is reached.
Once all retainers (50%) have been received, I will schedule in the
project, which will take approximately 8 weeks to complete.
Available prints and pricing:
18" X 24" on archival paper.............................................
...$45.00 +S/H**
24" X 36" on archival paper.............................................
...$65.00 +S/H**
Fine-art 24" X 36" limited edition of 100 *giclee prints..........$200.00 +
S/H**
Custom prints: an exclusive cutaway of your personal aircraft with your
paint scheme and specific details. By quote only, the price will be
determined by the complexity of paint scheme and level of detail desired. A
50% deposit will be required on these special projects to secure a position
in the queue. They will be scheduled in the order received after completion.
Custom cutaways generally range between $500 - $1500. I have done some of
these works for Pitts Model 12 customers and they have been extremely
pleased with the final result.
*a giclee is digital print that is the highest quality reproduction
available. These are fine-art prints produced on museum quality acid-free
paper using non-fading special inks. When framed properly, these prints have
non-fading life expectancy of 100 years. These must be printed one at a time
at ultra-high resolution for maximum detail. They take about 1 hour each to
print and are dazzling.
**Shipping and handling includes actual shipping charge and packing tube.
Within the US this is $15.00. Overseas rates vary. (Inquire for rates)
