Title: Art for your Tank
Post by Tiefighterpilot on 05/19/10 at 10:57:57

Anyone do art on their tank?  I needs some inspiration...

I was thinking of putting nose art (like on the bombers)... but this one:

The local pinstripe house here in town has a full color printer that will print anything you like. They claim that the images will hold up for over three years in the AZ sun.
You might want to check your local market.

WW2 aircraft Nose Art type graphics would look wicked on a Bobbed LS painted flat olive drab IMHO

I like it! If you know a good artist, you should change the picture to someone you know (very well).
