Hey everyone! Here are some photos of my G40 custom job. I built this to be relatable to all players and only added features to subtly enhance playability. Dress right dress and standardization were the order of the day.
List of features:
- NO MOLD LINES (all pieces were carefully sanded with sanding twigs)
- LOW COLOR NOISE (no special camouflage or distracting colors)
- Infrastructure replaced with actual pieces (all painted white)
- Capital ships have magnetized hulls to “carry” orange damage markers
- Aircraft Carriers are magnetized to “carry” aircraft
- Aircraft magnetized to flight stands using “pin drill” technique for perfect balance.
- Aircraft wear period correct decals for ease of spotting on the board (my exception to “color noise” reduction)
*8) Some units were replaced for historical accuracy. Used only AH or WotC pieces to maintain aesthetic integrity. (exc: China P-40, artillery)
