    I am the managing editor of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society Journal and we have an article on York CF-HMX in preparation as an upcoming Journal feature article. I would like to establish contact with the 3D artist who created the Arctic Wings model in the interest of obtaining permission, and a suitable 2D image file, to use as the cover art for the edition which will carry the article. Please contact me at your earliest opportunity directly on editorATaviaeologyDOTcom if interested. With kind regards, Terry at SkyGrid Studio / Aviaeology Publishing / CAHS Journal
