I do believe this is my very first contribution to the Bucket.

I've been lurking Shipbucket for a long while after being referred here from Juniorgeneral. I noticed a superb guide to World War 2-era US Navy aircraft that I've been working off of but have noticed that it didn't include the various tail markings for the different carriers. So, this is my effort to complete that.

Lemme know if there's anything I need to fix. Thanks very much!
Nicholas

Not as such. I did an AU version of the Oriskany (as built), but never got around to following up with the real life version; and I thought Darthpanda was once working on a WWII version. I should think we've all got loads of scans still if anyone is up for doing another version :)

Great to hear D.P. It will be a great addition. Considering how close my AU Oriskany was to the original it is a cause of great embarassment that I never went the extra step and did the real life, but like lots of projects it still reamains a hope :)

The pickle barrel on the Mk 13 brought a smile to my face.

The prewar aircraft feel a little bit 'plastic' to me compared to the rest of the works, but that's probably just an accurate reflection of reality.
