Accurate Miniature Equivalents for Custom Painting your 1940 E&P

[Variable]

I’d have to say, my favorite part of the vehicles has be the outlined camo patterns. I can appreciate how difficult that is. Also, the patterns themselves are very tricky. In the past when painting camo, I find it tough to make it look good. Yours are fantastic!

Yeah, and they all have a unique pattern. It just flows out of him. He is a true artist. Beautiful work. Gimme some more please.

The rest of your stuff looks awesome, I can’t wait for the zeroes.

I’m out of town for a wedding until Sunday… I’ll finish them on the trip (fortunately they’re pretty mobile) and post pics then. I think you’ll see why it’s taking a bit - I’ve changed the projected air force camo schemes as following:

12 Strategic Bombers, 12 Tactical Bombers, 24 Fighters

Six camo schemes for 2 of each air unit, then three additional schemes for the remaining 12 fighters (4 each)

Thanks! I plan on taking some Pacific 1940 setup pics once Japan is finished.

By the way: I was thinking USA next… What do you guys want to see?

Well in that case, I’ve only got Germany, UK, Russia, US, and Italy to go.  :|

I did break down and get my 2nd copy of Pacific 1940.  :-D

Oh yeah, my bad. ANZAC or UK, they all look alike to me.

[idk_iam_swiss]

they did use the same molds…

[Imperious Leader]

I guess he’ll have to paint the Union Jack on the pieces so that you can tell them apart.

I’m actually rather curious to see UK next, just because I’d like to see how our glorious painter makes them distinct from the ANZAC forces.  Though I doubt anyone here would complain if US comes next, because these paint jobs are INCREDIBLE.

Makes me wish I had the time, patience, and fine motor skills to paint my own A&A pieces.  But no, all I’ve got is pieces envy.  :-P

BD - it’s not a Union 'J unless its at the prow of a ship, the pole is wooden.

Fantastic paint jobs… still waiting for the rest…

I tried to figure out what you meant but all I found was information supporting my statement:

Just josh’in, but yeah, it’s not termed a union Jack by British mariners unless (above) - just a tidbit of relatively useless knowledge. Wiki not including it doesn’t surprise me, could only know if - yadda yadda.

By the way Allworkandnoclay - threw out a link of some of those painted minis I was talking to you about.

I must have forgotten, which minis were those and what is the link?

By the way, I saw your painted minis in the AA50 forum and your pieces are fantastic.
