I like it. What better way to represent all things sacred in the US than a nice female and fishing.

I don't know who the artist is who did this Dice but, it's very well done. Kind of a WWII look to the female then the Hog blowin' the crap out of something in the background. I like it!!! <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

I got a little more info on the door, the image came from an old Alaskan travel poster, and I agree with you guys, it does have that WWIIish nose art look to it. <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

This is my second favorite door art I've ever seen. If my jet wasn't painted with my design, it would be my favorite- period, but I have to have loyalty to my jet.

Assault is a type of behavior, not a type of rifle.

jackb,

Since I find it difficult to keep up with who's who on the WT, I'd like to see you're jet's door art. It'll save me a lot of research time.

Thanks
Engineguy

Thanks Jack. That was posted before I joined this great forum. The door is great and I love the acorn bomb. Nice touch. Your artist did a great job.

Political correctness be damned...nothing nicer than the well rendered female form on an aircraft.
