Ours is ripped off from AW DOS graphics.

BTW, except for the bent wing bird with a cigar in it's mough in the center, this is how the graphics looked when I first started playing.

Both Hornet's nose arts were drawn by Dsrtrat.

The 479th nose art that is shown (the one as my avatar) is the actual insignia for the 479th "Riddle's Raiders" Fighter Group based in England during WW2. They were a P-38/P-51 squadron.

Thanks T.
Speak of bottles....YIKES!!!

BTW, how do I shrink this again? It worked before , but I can't seem to find it, and when I just try and shrink it by 'resize', it blurrs. I'm starting with a 22meg TIF , maybe I can't shrink it all in one shot? Can't remember how I did it last time?

This is the Mrs Roo's tutorial for paintshop pro 7-8 for resizing

Warning they added a stupid addware to the website that has a pop up .. just clic no .. (Were in the process of moving all her pages eventually )

Or you can just bribe her and she'll be glad to resize it for ya .

Anybody happen to have a pic of the artwork for the 69th Shepherd's Fold? They were from Air Warrior. They had a really cool piece of original art for their squad.

BlueJ,

Thanks for the kudos on the DFA noseart. I'm not 100% sure where it came from as it was what we were using when I joined the squad years ago. Whoever created it did a nice job.
Since we combined our two wings into one, we have created new noseart for the game but still use the buff and fighter wing logos on our website. The new noseart should be out soon - its a yellow and black skull, and I'm hoping will show up nicely in the game.
