How do the B-25 skins work with the multiple nose types?

Nice touch with the dorsal gunner pointed at the camera Fencer. :aok

Oh, and sweet skin too. :D
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

U say it's the 499th BS / 345th BG "Air Apaches" B-25C but your screen shot is the B-25H!

Now I see that HT has accepted the skin but it's on the B-25C with the glass nose and you cannot see the artwork!!!

What gives?

You have to select the 8mg solid nose B25C in the hangar. Thats what's in  the screenshots, too (notice the lack of the 75mm howitzer of the B25H)
