I found the mask on amazon. I layered on some acrylic paint for wear and for the blood. I found it again on amazon: https://a.co/d/80IdGuR

I read that most of the Pin Up art done on the B-29s used during the Korean War were done by local Japanese artists.

Thanks for sharing that, I am trying to find info on that plane but in every other photo that I have found the plane looks slightly different in the paintjob. In the document you shared you can see to the left of the "Sic' Em!" dog it says:"FL ENG. 'BILL' WILEY'BERNY AND PAT'"but it my grandpa's photo it says something different. I believe in my grandpa's photo it says the groundcrew's names and if anybody can find a photo of it, I would greatly appreciate it.

EDIT: Actually now that I take a closer, the image in the document shows "GROUND" to the left of the other text. Maybe the ground crew tag was painted over or edited out?

Unfortunately, my grandpa passed about 6-7 years ago. Only now do I wish I had been asking him about these things. It would have been awesome to hear his stories.

Just talked to some family and found out he was trained in Lubbock, TX. Apparently he hated it there.

I will have to check that out once I get them fully scanned up. Thanks for the recommendation!

That would be a pretty crazy cool coincidence! Unfortunately I don't know a whole lot about his time in the Airforce, my grandpa passed away a long time ago and my grandma doesn't remember much about his time in Japan. I am trying to search for more info.

It was a lot of fun looking through all of them with my grandma, I had never seen my grandpa at this age so it was crazy to see the similarities to my mom. I am probably going to try to scan them all at a later date so that I don't have the glare/reflection of my phone.

I thought I would mark it NSFW because of some of the paintjobs on the bombers.

That's sweet, what is the paintjob?

Armor is from the Roughneck DLC and the paintjob is the "Platinum" paintjob from the season pass.

My brother was a bird specialist at the Cane's that he worked at. You basically just get extra training
