painting your B-24J in "The Dragon and His Tail" or "Queen Mae" which would you choose?

Dragon - http://www.b24bestweb.com/dragonandhistail3.htm

Queen - http://www.b24bestweb.com/queenmae2.htm

Though I love the "Dragon" artwork I'd have to go with the "Queen."

I'd choose the Dragon, just because the Dragon runs all the way down the fuselage.

For a model or for real?

Queen Mae or even Cocktail Hour as Dragon has been done already.

I have got to tell you that when the Collings B-24 was painted like the Dragon,it came to the local airport. I really liked it. The Dragon was a real masterpiece.
