40 minutes to go here in Oz. With a new outbreak of covid here I'm not as confident as I was a couple of days ago about 2021 being better.
Happy New Year to all anyway.

Nice work Philipp, I do like the dusty weathering too.

Michael

Well done Philipp.

Thanks Adam.
It certainly would not have helped as the bombs were stacked and man-handled and the box fins were in crates to protect the fins I believe.

I meant to say light grey not white.

Thanks Philipp.
Yes I found it strange too, that's why I ran with it.
Apparently, they were white until about 1942, then started using the USAF Olive Drab with yellow lines around them that were used in the ETO. Must have been a supply thing.

Hope everyone is enjoying themselves as best you can. I had a few hours to myself so I just thought I'd do the Aux. fuel tank and the bombs, although I'm not much of a fan of fighters with bombs. But it gave me time to experiment with oils. It was fun for me, hope you enjoy the results. Fuel_and_Bom...

That's good to hear Philipp. Just gone 11:50pm here.
Having a few cognac's, waiting to catch Santa.

Just a couple of hours to go, so have a Merry Christmas from Oz (although it's not the warm one we usually have here at the moment.) In Melbourne that is.
But, I hope you all have a fantastic Christmas and a very safe one.

Michael

Nice job Adam.
