do you think you can add the PZL P.11 or the PZL P.24 to the list the turks, romanians, and greeks used the PZL P.24. and the PZL P11 was the poles main fighter. either one of the models could work for all 4 of the factions since the 2 models looked alike

Does the light grey match any of the greys in your axis minor set? (I hope so, as it will help me fill in the naval gap.)

Yes,
The light grey will be the same.
I forgot, it will also be in yellow, which will match the yellow in the axis minor set.

These look really great...

Infantry - Dutch Soldier
Infantry - Polish Soldier
Artillery - 75mm 7 veld ....perfect
Armored Car - Wz-34  or how bout this site: http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/244451 (DAF M39)
Tank - 7Tp  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7TP
Fighter - Fokker DXXI
Tac - Fokker G1  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fokker_G.I, i hate anything that looks like a p-38.
Transport - Arundo
Sub - Orzel class
Destroyer - Admiralen Class
Cruiser - DeRuyter Class

Everything is in order and are good looking choices except the tactical bomber, which looks too modern.

alternatives:

in spain they used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoia-Marchetti_SM-81
also this looks even better...http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail.asp?aircraft_id=814

I agree with IL completely on this one. especially on the Tac. I have enough P-38s for everyone. His choice is better on this one.

Agree,
Let's explore a better choice for the TAC.
Good ideas so far.

the breda looks nice and it was used by a lot of neutral countries. still want to make a case for the PZL's.  compared to the Fokker D.XXI it was used as  by a wider range of naturals countries not to mention Poland. if i had to choose between the 2 i would pick the PZL but i rather see both if posible

Awesome. I was hoping you would also do yellow as it would be a good color for doubling  as a Spanish army.  I assume that the antique white of the axis neutrals is a different color than the neutral white. (Personally I hope they are the same for the same reason I mentioned in my first post.)

I also agree that a less P-38 looking Tac would be a good thing.

Doesn't "antique ivory" have sort of a very light brown tint to it?  Or perhaps more of a yellowish tint?

How about for a Tac, the Swedish Saab 17.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saab_17

Especially as the Italian planes noted above are already the Italian tac and bomber by FMG.

I like it! It falls in line with the other tacs already in OOB.

Brownish white, slight yellow tint I guess.
