B-25J "Executive Sweet' NEW NOSE ART

Wed Apr 30, 2008 11:18 pm

PUBLIC RELEASE AS OF TODAY!

Heres our new art! Waiting to hear what you all think , but she is an original Varga from 43-44. Well the original didnt have clothing, but we had to add a few small pieces of material to stay P.C.

Come see it at March ARB Airshow this weekend!

An original Varga would have been published in Esquire Magazine and would have been covered up, right? Can you scan the original atwork for comparison?

The plane looks great!

Here's a little something on Joaquin Alberto Vargas y Chávez in case anyone is interested:

I like it. The new paint job is much better looking than the previous.

I can sum up what I think in just one word ....

WOW !

I like it as well. Big improvement on the previous job.

Question for you, Dave. Is Ed Schnepf still associated with Executive Sweet at all? If so, what is his affilliation? Just curious.

As an artist, I'd love to see a closeup if possible... :?:

I love the artwork, hate the PC part of it.

He should have painted it au-natural, and gotten some vinyl cut to be placed where neccesary when neccesary.

Very nice, but screw the PC crowd. It would have been much better in the original form, but I don't own a B-25 then do I. :)
