Good shots guys!

I planned modeling a B-17G when Bill was alive but gave up as he had passed away.
Re-thought better late than never though my heart is empty.
Please anyone kindly advise if this siggy shows his plane's nose art.
Thank you very much.

IIRC, Bill used this plane for his avatar.
No more problem. Thanks.

I'm going to complete the ball turret and correct color scheme details to finish this project which I minded for Bill.
Thanks.

Shinpachi, you are awesome my friend.

Thanks David. I think I'm coming to the final.

B-17G #44-8647 (360BS).
This seems to be one of the B-17s Bill actually flew.
