Description
This painting is based on a photo that depicted a couple of ground crew repainting the tail of a B-29. I really liked the composition so I used it as the basis for a depiction of the Enola Gay. The Enola Gay is being modified for it's top secret mission to drop the atomic bomb. On August 1 it was given the circle R tail markings of the 6th Bomb Group as a security measure to avoid mis-identification with actual 6th Bomb Group aircraft and to confuse the enemy. More info on the Enola Gay can be found in this link.
