Happy new year!

incredible !

Hi.

As always from you: Very nice - beautiful work!

A little constructive nitpicking;
The livery is not true to what TWA used at the time,
TWA used two red stripes along the fuselage and an American flag as well as seen here; Lockheed L-1649

The fuselage in your image looks a little "flat" on the side, like it was of triangular shape instead of circular shape.
Looking forward to see more aircraft images from you!

Did you draw the clouds or did you use a background image?

Well, I must admit I've had to read your message twice. Having spent hours to replicate the details, and became pretty tired, I simply miss the fact that I've forgot to restore the correct z-order on the "livery" layer. I feel something wasn't right with my plane, but still wondering why, until I've read your post. Then, I stared at my image like an idiot for two mins before put the things in the correct order.
Fuselage and overall- being myself not an artist, I'm unconfortable with shadowing and so on. I.e. the background (a vectorize bitmap) does not match at its best with the plane itself.
I'm kept this project away to retouch it when I'll became more aware of artist's techniques.
Thank you for your corrections!

Hi.

With the latest "improvements" it's impressive!!
Excellent work!
