Pin Jets

​

This series of miniature Aircraft sculptures are made using the brass of a spent bullet shell. Each model is based on a real Jet-fighter design. I worked with service veterans in an Art & Craft Rehabilitation Programme, and I learned that some used to make models of the aircraft of their time this way. It's a form of "trench-art". Each modelette is roughly 3cm long mounted in a 10x10cm frame over linen.
