really love Don Allen's work with the 4th FG
That's actually the squadron badge of VF-3, rather than true nose-art... It was initially carried by a bomb squadron (VB-2) in the 1920s (hence Felix's carrying of a bomb rather than a gun), and they kept it after they became a fighter squadron in the 30s (VF-6B) and then redesignated again to VF-3 just prior to WW2. After the squadron was disbanded after WW2, VF-31 picked up the little Tomcat in the 50s, and kept it, and are flying F/A 18s today, as VFA-31. "Felix Rules, Baby"...
I'll leave out the pic, but I dig P-51 "Passion Wagon"......pretty much anything with boobies.....I'm a big fan of them things!

...the bee nose art ...i believe it was a unit insignia on the eastern front.
Actually, those're Wespen, (Wasps). Yeah, it was a unit marking... Bf110s of ZG 1 "Horst Wessel" in N Africa and in Russia.
Interestingly, and much more rare, the wasps were also painted on Bf109E-7s of III/ZG 1...

i like the German planes with the yellow noses or engines(twin wnine) and the bee nose art as well. i believe it was a unit insignia on the eastern front. the Pacific theatre hellcats with the teeth and eyes were cool too.

B-24H 'Witchcraft' for familial reasons and the P-61 'Lil Audrey.' Gotta get started on that Monogram P-61 kit........ :)
For the sake of the kiddies (and my account), keep it PG-rated (or add the "Censored" bars in the appropriate areas if you post a picture)...
No Warbirds or commercial aluminum panels unless it's depicting a real WW2 aircraft and crew/pilot ...
