Question Thinking about Custom Paint Job for Cross Bones

I have been considering buying some new sheetmetal with a custom paint job. Being that the cross bones resembles old school, I figure it would be cool to go with an old bomber-/fighter plane-style paint scheme. Check out the links and tell me what you think...

I wish there was a way to photoshop these paint schemes onto a cross bones....

I'm sure you can tell them which colors to use with either paint scheme at those prices. If you notice the mouth and eyes are different on both tanks. I'm not quite convinced the face on the deuce tank will work with the bones. Hummm.....

I like the pin-up girls but the bomber not fond of. If it was mr I would go with paint job one on second tin.

would look better in flat paints. my brother in law flys the 60g pavehawk in the air force. theirs is flat greys and black. something like that would be sweet. going the old style. id love that flat olive.
