I have had a 3D printer hobbyist CAD design a new BB playing piece and a new DD playing piece.
The BB is based on the WW1 UK Iron Duke modified for appearance. It is, certainly, better looking than the original BB design. Additionally, I (we) used a depiction of a WW1 US 4 stacker DD to make a modified DD playing piece for A&A WW1. The rationale that the Sub replaces the need for a DD just doesn’t ‘cut it’ (make sense). Most of the colour filaments used to 3D print these units are a good match to the original playing piece colours. I will post pictures of these as I have assistance doing so.
Painted pieces

anyone know a business or something along the line to send my pieces in to be painted? I am not skilled enough to do it myself and I would really like this to happen. Thank you

I wrote this info from another thread, because I do not know how to provide a link, but IL mentioned this guy paints axis and allied pieces historically accurate, unless you provide pictures of what you want done.
His name is Edmund Haley.

I hope this helps. He has painted several pieces for IL.
Good luck! :-)

He has painted several thousand pieces, Civil War, WW2, WW1, Napoleonic…about 5,000
I can totally vouch for this guy. He is the best.

You could try a company called Blue Table. I know they do stuff like Warhammer, but I have no idea if they’d do A&A pieces or what it would cost.
