Yes, I did see that. He also cites who he got the markings from, so I think I'll try that first.

Just someone who made custom 1/48th scale markings for the Senator's aircraft:

Try contacting the builder, he may be able to email you the markings and allow you to downsize them to 1/72.

Markings for Yo-Yo
Posted by WillysMB on Thursday, April 30, 2020 11:55 AM

I've just found out a close friends father was a turret gunner in a 15th AF 455th group B-24 named Yo-Yo. His pilot, and tent mate, was the future Senator McGovern and he has several pictures of the crew in front of the plane. He is wanting to build a model of his dad's plane in 1/72 scale. 

There is a lot of documentation on Yo-Yo regarding the markings and the Bugs Bunny nose art. Does anybody know if a decal company ever made a 1/72 sheet with Yo-Yo on it? I did some looking and couldn't find anything.
