I haven't done a "Nose Art" Calendar for a long long time - So thought this year I'd try one with Bunz & Katz adorning my favorite of all WWII Warbirds, the Douglas SBD Dauntless... They were old - slow - considered obsolete, but when it came to ship-busting they did the job!
While our calendar this month commemorates some 76 years ago when the Imperial Mobile Fleet and US Navy slugged it out around the Midway Atoll (From June 4 - 7 1942)... During which one wag remarked, "Admirals Nimitz and Nagumo divided the Pacific Ocean between them - Nimitz gave Nagumo the bottom half..." About everything that could go wrong, went wrong for Admiral Chuichi Nagumo, and when it was over Japan's fleet carriers - Akagi, Kaga, Soryu and Hiryu along with the US carrier CV-5 Yorktown had taken that long plunge to the bottom of the Pacific...
Looking back at it today the battle all seems rather futile and pointless - it was horrific in its own way, but far worse was yet to come! Eventually the US and Japanese nations have become fast friends and partners in the world economy... It's just a terrible thing to wonder, Why couldn't we have managed this without all the horrors of the war?!?
Unfortunately, people tend to forget that War rarely solves anything - often it just leads to more War! And when our political leaders urge or threaten war on others, they're quite often men who never had the grit to serve in the military themselves... JQ

It seems my pal Sean has come up with this cute li'l paper doll sort of model Paper Toy that you can put together... all you need is a Printer and some Elmer's Glue and a bit of patience, an' before you know it, there she is!
Click on the Pix to download a Printable Version...
A few notes from Sean on printing and such:
These li'l guys really should be printed on card stock. If you use regular paper the glue tends to wrinkle them up a bit, no matter how sparingly you use it...
For cutting, a hobby knife would be best - or tiny li'l nail scissors... Jus' plain ol' Elmer's glue will do for stickin' these together...
It takes maybe about an hour to cut and glue her together... perhaps a bit longer if you have to wait for the glue to set on some parts before proceeding...
So there you have it. Just download the high - resolution Jpeg (300 dpi), which is why it's a li'l large on file size, but will print sharper... then get to work - an' you may have your very own Bunny in time for Valentine's Day!
