Seeking advice on painted B6

Good day to you all

I have decided that my next acquisition will be a painted B6. Much as I love the B3, I think it would be less practical for regular wear.

At present, I am leaning towards either a redskin Aero Leather Clothing version or a Real McCoy version but advice on that choice is welcome!

I would like to have it painted - which Aero can arrange; however, I have never seen a jacket they had painted except on their website. I do have a Burma Bridgebusters A2 they did with patches/chits etc in leather - and that is a nice piece of work. (In tribute to my wife, I am trying to find original noseart based on a "Wendy" theme - any ideas?)

I live in NZ so finding an artist and shipping the jacket might be tricky?

Advice...

Check the top of the WW2 section where there is a permanent library link. In there you will have a list of JACKET ARTISTS who come highly recommended.
