Re: Sired's Map project - Updated- 4/16 - files available see first post
Anyone who knows if it was intended that Sired blood changed the IPC of Celebes from 3 to 4 on his OOB map?

Nice painting there man, really interesting !
You can get 1/700 scale decals for the planes and save time making all these roundels.
Love the work man, well done. Question to you and to any other painters - do you ever paint the underneath of the aircraft?
Thanks guys!

I have looked at I-94’s decals and thought about it… the only ones I have trouble with are the Russian stars. I enjoy hand painting the insignia and I feel like it makes it look more uniform when it’s all paint, but like you said, it would definitely save some time :lol:
Question to you and to any other painters - do you ever paint the underneath of the aircraft?
Yes, I do paint the undersides, as I am sure most of the other painters here do. I paint the USAF, Luftwaffe, and Italian airforce with gray undersides, while the RAF and Russian airforce have robin blue undersides.
I have also painted the British navy, and I really like how they turned out, but I haven’t been able to get any pics yet. I’ll try to post those soon, as well as the US infantry.

I painted the bottoms of mine, but it’s monotone. A medium grey on the US and German stuff, a lighter grey on the British and Japanese stuff. I will try to get some pics up of my latest project. Finished BOTB!

I94 Enterprises sells perfect decals for A&A pieces.
I’ve tried a lot of different decals - and I have to say my best results were from I-94, my two cents… :wink:
