B-24J The Green Dragon II

[lyric1]

Thank you very much for that, very helpful sir.

As someone in the know about finding great images, any ideas of your own for some great b24 skins. Something extra fun not looking for the mundane

 
I have given Greebo some in the past if he chooses to pass on them I will pass a few on to you.

[HornetUK]

Yes If you can find out that would be great

[Greebo]

Feel free to pass on any info Lyric1, I'm not planning on skinning more B-24s for a while.

OK lets start off with this one for now. Not to extreme yet but is still a little unusual.

You want to cause controversy you will get it with this one. There is no guns on any of these photos as they were all taken out just prior to the aircrafts return to the USA after VE day. They did fly with them & this plane did look like this while on missions. If you notice under the left wing R4T is written there not sure what colour R4T is written in it looks to be anything other than white though. Red maybe? Looks to be the same colour as the rest of the R4T lettering on the fuselage & tail.

Tar Baby.

OK Tar Baby a little to controversial & probably rightly so.




Next.









"Yellow Nosed Monster".

The tail number is wrong in the book it is in fact 41-28802. Also note the tongue is not drawn correctly in the profile.

Edit: If you look in this book it shows the patterns that were painted on top of the tails of these 15TH air force B-24's in this case look for the 459TH bomb group.
