Maybe it's me, but I don't see black on the nose cowl in the original pic. :D


They probably haven't repainted the cowl rings from the Yankee Warrior scheme yet.

I thought I would post up some photos from my recent trip to paint the nose art that I designed for Rosie's Reply. :)

Fantastic work Chad! I think the new name is very appropriate for a plane based at Willow Run.

I don't love it, but it's better than some airbrushed model from the 90's... :)

I love it! It makes sense to do something that is in the spirit and style of the period - and this is definitely that! It's also very appropriate for an aircraft based at Willow Run to carry nose art honoring the Rosies. Nice work!
