Paint & Interior    Some concepts.

Lots of ideas. Need further development and probably more mature thought before I actually paint anything. I will definitely be doing it myself, though (except for the artwork).
Probably gray background, risque nose art, and skull'n'bones on the tail.

I'll post the various ideas I've been collecting from the web here later on and risk the copyright infringement.

Here's a big shout out to all the teenage girls and boys on the German website PARTYFLOCK.NL who have grabbed my skull'n'bones graphic and my Bettie Page logo in the upper left corner of my webpage. I don't know whether I'm flattered, or I feel robbed. In any event, I would appreciate that if you're going to take my .jpgs, at least have the decency to copy them over to your own site instead of linking to my site and consuming my bandwidth. You know I pay for that!!

Skull-n-Bones Bettie Page
Skull for the tail. Bettie Page for the Nose. Grey8
Someone else's RV8. Simple Grey. Nice. Grey8
Another mostly grey RV8. I like the simple elegance. Perhaps I am really drawn to this kind of scheme since it looks like I would be able to execute this color and complexity level myself. I'm still hanging on to the idea that I am going to personally paint the plane.
