Hi, My name is Bill and I am updating my homepage to reflect a wonderful event in my life...marriage, September 18, 2010, to my best friend Tara...known to many of you as auntietk here on Renderosity.
We "met" shortly after I joined Renderosity in August 2008. We share a love for photography and indeed all types of art.
We live north of Seattle and enjoy getting to share photographic excursions and information with other Renderositians ( is "Renderositians" even a word? ). LOL
As for me, it seems like I've been taking pictures all my life but I didn't get serious enough to purchase my first Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera until May 2008. In May 2009 I upgraded from an Olympus E-510 to an Olympus E-30 with a wide variety of lenses.
My subject areas of interest include absolutely everything but with a frequent return to airplanes, cars, tanks, etc., ...or as Tara says, machines that make lots of noise;-)
If you are curious, I am pictured above in a Grumman Corsair on a taxiway of the Kansas City Downtown Airport. I used to fly and train others to fly airplanes. That will explain my frequent forays into the world of aviation. Last but by no means least, thanks to Pannyhb for introducing me to Renderosity. The moment I saw it I was hooked.
Fine print: Yes, the photo above is a photo manipulation:-)

Maybe they spray over the top and peel off the tape? I have no idea! They look fantastic though.

I think you should stay there and watch to make sure they don't do something you aren't noticing! I'm betting on painting, but maybe they're going to fuse the tape on and that will be the end of it? Hmmm.......

Interesting process. Hopefully you'll make it back there after it's done & post an update...

Well whatever they do next, I think it's going to look great Bill, these outlines in, what i am assuming to be duct tape, or gaffers tape, are really neat!

Wow – talk about having an oversized canvas..... It will be interesting to see what happens with the finished product! Maybe they're going to apply paint, then strip the tape off? At any rate looking forward to seeing your photos of however this turns out! Great shot of this, Bill!

I'll agree this would be amazing if painted, but to be honest it looks amazing as it is!! I just hope they bought good quality tape :-) You'd hate to come to work in the morning and find it all hanging off :-0 A really interesting capture Bill, thanks for sharing....
