Thanks siredblood for these.
Sure thing John, hope they work out for ya.
I hope to finish this thread up mid week with my first A&A vid, need to find the right music for the fly overs :)
Love that dust on the tracks. I’ve never made the jump to buying an airbrush - which model did you use? And which paints?
Congratulations on completing such a major project! Wonderful work.

Luckly my local shop had one, I hate waiting for stuff in the mail! I bought “light Earth” airbrush paint from hobby lobby. I sprayed the darker units, really makes them pop, the lighter units, like British and the DAK units, it really don’t show for the effort.
It works with acrylics! Good to hear. Thanks for the link.
At what point in the painting process did you airbrush? (i.e. after base coat? After an ink wash? At the very end, after all the detailing?)

Last, even after decals
Finally got to the fly over vid, I thought the iphone7 would make better vids then my old iphone4…… guess not lol… at least watch it in HD. The video also seemed to have gotten darker via youtube, going to mess with it, but it might be as good as it gets, I already packed up my board haha.
I also started the extra troops I bought from HBG, 5 Germans with the greatcoat, and 5 US Marines. Im in no hurry to paint them it seems, as I primed them, and painted skin 2 weeks ago, and they still sit there lol. Ill be sure to update this topic one last time when they are completed.
I may try again to upload it (my desktop version is 100% better quality), but not now, this was an hour ordeal.
Looks good man. Impressive to see all your hard work together and in action.

Thanks! Im a tad disappointed in the video, but hey, its my second one. Hopefully ill get better.
I really liked your video. Don’t be to hard on yourself. Your doing great man. :-D
Thanks John, ill update this thread once more later when I finish those other troops… Oh I also replaced the some of the Japanese artillery with some from HBG, after which, I kinda liked the OOB ones better lol.
