My Tribute to the guys that flew in the pacific air campaign.

Post by Always48 »

Finally got home and realised i had to post my entry before midnight, its 23:40 right now. sorry about photo quality as its a phone jobby under the dinning room light. Im just glad i got them completed within 4 mths as that was my challenge. i had to get them done to a level i was happy with.

The planes selected represent a few of the well known navy aircraft that flew in combat against the Japanese and ive selected 2 fighter bombers and 2 anti ship/ground attack craft. better crack on with a few pics.
