Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

O.K. guys here is where I am with this. My paint still has not arrived for me to finish the frame work, and I don't want to seal the paint and decals until I get all of the paint in place. I thought I would at least show you guys were I am now.

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Cool Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

Very neat Mustangdriver. Was a bit confused earlier but since you've the Corgi one, well why not. Makes perfect sense to me. Its already looking good.

Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

Yeah, I have the Corgi one as well as the Franklin Mint Dragon and his tail. So I thought I would try to do this one. I though it would be easier since the base color was correct, but the closer I looked teh real Strawberry Bitch was alot lighter than the Squaw. So I repainted the entire aircraft.

Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

Looks great mustangdriver. I always thought the squaw looked too orangey (is that a word ).

Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

Thanks man. Yeah I am not sure if that was the right color. I like it. It is different.

Re: B-24 "Strawberry Bitch"

Maybe because it's on display at the AF museum.
