I'm back ! Lots of good work bin happening in my absence. Thought you'd like to witness my improved C-47 attempts, this one The Flying Dutchman. Her carcass still lies on top of a New Guinea mountain.
I had never seen a US airplane with such a serial?
The landing gear leg seems a bit too thin but I might be mistaken. I'd also try adding a bit of extra highlight to make the fuselage rounder. Aside from that, I rather like it. Any chances of seeing a bigger image?
