Nose Art

At the end of WW II most aircraft were considered surplus and ended up being stored then smelted. Some of the artwork has been saved. Many modern aircraft also now sport nose art, some in tribute to previous work some brand new. If you have any, post them. If you can identify the airplane.... great, if not, post anyway. Those below are obviously B-24's... models I do not know.
