I don't think so but it would be a goodie really adding the fresh metallic shine to it, I might just have a look this afternoon.

Would love the "Doc" repaint
One day without laughter, is one day without living.
One day without Flight Simming, is one day lost living.
+3. I was looking for this exact repaint a few weeks ago. I would Love to have it!
I have a feeling I started one long ago. Will have a look when I get back from Cornwall on Thursday.

For anyone interested in making an accurate repaint of the aircraft, note that the airframe is not entirely left in bare metal. As per original factory production procedure, the main center section assembly, including the center of the fuselage (wing spar carry-through), portions of the inner wing sections, and portions of the outer wing sections, are painted silver. (Of course all fabric control surfaces are painted the same silver finish.)
Here are some photos that illustrate this:

beautiful pics, these last few!
You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.

As JK said, those last photo's are great and they really define it its great to have both series the old and the new, Thanks John, I did not get a chance to re-install my B-29 but I'll wait to what DaveQ may have regard to "Doc" there are plenty other possibles.
Such a fascinating airplane the B-29. The technology leap never ceases to blow me away. Boeing really had something there...
Great pictures, Thank You for those!
That is one off the things that caught my attention was the well known video showing the B-29 build, technology mixed with simplicity, a simple piece off string to measure the correct height off the astrodomes for the gunners, course the words from late Steve Birdsall, quoted from a WWII veteran that "he would only fly on Boeing aircraft", its a documentary well worth putting on your shelf, Great Planes, B-29

That is looking awesome! Definitely a download for me when it's ready.
That is looking pretty bloody great 'Doc'
Not my work. A friend.
Follow the progress.

All fine to many 'DOC's' can really muck the surgery up
Was this paint ever released? I have tried the "mediafile" link posted on flightsim.com but it tells me it does not exist....!?
Would anyone else have any idea how to obtail this paint please?
