Now that our first event is over and the next event knocking on the door.
I am going as fast as I can, work is furious too so we will see. Five weeks to get her done and flight tested. There will be one of the bigest gathering of giant B-17 in central Texas this year at the Ken White memorial warbird.

For all of my fellow Jug Heads out there the San Diego Air & Space Museum has added some more vintage Jug pictures to the archive on FlickR.

I'm not sure but I'm guessing $150

for a scale plane that one spends a year (s) building and detailing to stick a vinyl decal of noes art on the plane just doesn't do the modle justice.
I am very curiouse to see how this noes art will come out. Hopefully she can do it this weekend.

Thanks, that's a little step for this model.
Yeah, it looks pretty cheesy but that's because of the file I sent them, they weren't able to do much with it., I was going to try to retouch the photo and print it out on water transfer decal paper.
good luck,,

Today I moved back home to Austin so I will only be working on the build on the weekends. As I was driving and the cowl sitting next to me I realized how bad I had screwed up. First, why did I cover the entire cowl with foil tap?? 
I only needed to cover the right side, the bottom and the cowl flaps on the sides. All the red can be fiberglass painted, and the left side for the pinup (yellow), and the top gets olive drab. So if Amy can't do the artwork this weekend I'm redoing it, brain fart I guess

MY Wife is creating an alternate memory for me, one that favors her remembrance of everything.

So it looks like Amy will be doing the artwork this Saturday evening. I am working on finishing the top of the fuselage so I can paint the olive drab. I will be negotiating a base price for RC noes art for others that want this as I am sure others would do this if it was affordable and done in a timely manor so we will see.
