Title: 459th Bomber Squadron Tall, Torrid and Texas Request
Post by: Coog03 on November 02, 2008, 07:53:22 PM

I was hoping that someone is or could start working on this beautiful B24. Was reading a bomber book and the plane stuck out like a sore thumb to me.  Attacked such targets as oil refineries, munitions and aircraft factories, industrial areas, airfields, and communications centers in Italy, France, Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Austria, Rumania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, and Greece. Sorry could not find any good pics besides a painting and model of the plane.

Thank you for reading

would be good if there were some photos of the plane its self
the model isnt really any good to work from if you want to get the nose art right
