Warbird Kid Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 New one from the old man who is adding some aircraft to the Jolly Roger Diorama.... What should be a somewhat quick transformation of a CafeReo "BIG BIRD' B-24J (Cocktail Hour) into a 90th Bomb Group 400th Squadron aircraft known as "Ho Hum". 3D Image from unknown. The very thick nose gear doors removed and the nose wheel taken off for re positioning for a more realistic look. The fuselage windows painted in with fine point ink marker and to be touched up with Kyrstal Klear. The anti glare panel repainted olive drab with a touch of white to a more original color and shape. Nose art and tail images were designed and scaled to 1/144 by Chris. They were printed out (nose art on clear and tails on white decal paper) on a ink jet printer then a coat of decal preserver was applied. The front part of the black anti glare panel painted aluminum. The tails sprayed over with a gray primer and then gloss white. To be continued...
