I will start.

What a great Airshow with the Thunderbirds and many others today at Maxwell AFB here in Montgomery! There were some great warbirds there doing their thing today. What a sight to see a B-25 on a simulated bombing run.

Here is the "Special Delivery"


I want to offer a personal and very large, (Thank you!) to all of you who who have served and are still serving. You all have my most heartfelt gratitude and respect!

Jimmy Woodard

Here is what I plan to use on an up coming project. I am planning to do an XA38 Grizzley, still in the planning and drawing stages, since there were only 2 originals and they never went into production I am taking "liberties" by adding the nose art but this will not be a competion model.

Jimmy,

I am partial to B-25s (Dad was an engineer gunner in CBI. two of his squadron mates live in the Montgomery area), and have long wished one of the guys had had color film for this photo of Anne Sheridan, standing beside the John Johns' art work on this 22nd Bm Sqd, B-25J at Yankai Air Base, China.

I believe there are computer colorization programs available and professional studios who can colorize a b&w picture for you.

Stalag Luft III is going on my TF giant P-47, Hairless Joe is on a practice piece (which explains the bleed through and poor camo job), Shangri-La / In The Mood / Axis Nightmare (none of which are finished) on my "flight box". All are airbrushed and hand painted.
