Here you go Gastrick & Earthman. Sorry it took a while but handpainting this thing took me longer than I anticipated. The Red & Yellow pattern is from the 357th Fighter Group, 8th Air Force, from WWII. Specifically in honor of "Ace" Fighter Pilot Capt. Clarence "Bud" Anderson's P-51 Mustang nose art. It's a long story but his plane has become a huge inspiration to me. The yellow looks washed out because of the bright light but it's actually really bright yellow.


Let me know what you think.

That's awesome T-1. Sorry I didn't see your post sooner. I really like it...and the story behind it.

Thanks Gastrick! :D Yeah, it has that crash test look to it too! The real reason behind it is the P-51 Mustang though. Thanks to you too, Moronthethrottle. I found a nice propeller hood ornament that would look kind cool but it got away from me on paybay.
 
Hey! i am just seeing this today and it's way cool. I love seeing anything fresh
on these creations.Like it a lot T1. Thanks for sharing.:)
 
Great tribute to one of our greatest fighter pilots, T1. Any plans for a continuation of the "Old Crow" theme ?
 
Any comments - ANYBODY??? Sometimes I wonder why I post pictures on here?? Even negative feedback is better than no feedback.

Looks allsome!

I love airplane art!

My great uncle flew the Hump in the CBI Theater in WWII. Wrote a book about it. The B-24's in his squadron had some cool art on them.
