Our Story

Aces In Action was born from a deep respect for military history and a passion for preserving it through art. Founded by Craig Tinder, a lifelong artist with a profound connection to military aviation, our gallery brings history to life in a way that is both visually stunning and emotionally impactful. Each piece is a labor of love, meticulously crafted using a blend of traditional and digital techniques to capture every detail.

What truly sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to authenticity. We source our relics from trusted institutions, including museums, restoration shops, veteran’s organizations, and private collectors, ensuring that each piece is genuine and historically accurate. We believe the story behind every relic is as vital as the relic itself, which is why we conduct thorough research, drawing from personal accounts, published works, and museum archives, so our customers can not only see history but truly feel its significance.
