@johnnymarr:

allworkandnoclay, where did you get those jeep units, photographed beside the halftracks and tanks?

i dont see any jeeps, but if you mean the trucks, they are included with Battle of the Bulge

speaking of trucks do you use any special rules fur those.

@allworkandnoclay:

Yea, I actually thought about the air force title just after I posted it (then I thought, nah, nobody will say anything heh).

With this crowd, you can’t leave even the slightest opening or they will be all over you like flies on $#!+.

Hey allwork (mind if I call you allwork?)!

Would/Have you ever paint anything other than A&A units, like for other games?
Talking about Descent, Napoleonic Wars, or any other game?  If you have please post! :)

Thanks,

Well, it’s not a very well-known game, but to warm up to the A&A minis, I painted my ‘Monsters Menace America’ figures (just the monsters - still haven’t got around to the army figures ironically).

Here they are:

Those are awesome. That first one reminds me of Godzilla. I think IL plays a variation of A&A with Godzilla in it.

No its called the Doomsday Chicken variation. I play it like a berserker who may attack anybody, while they try to win. Its moves are random and it can take damage and die. Some newTechs allow you to control it for a time, but the enemy can blow up the transmitter that controls it.

I also play a Giant Ants variation based on Them! 50’s sci-fi movie

What happened? I thought for sure they would be posted by now.

[allworkandnoclay]

Sorry guys… Absolutely will be done tomorrow. I didn’t like one of the colors of the desert camo and the new one looks 10x better. I’m 90% finished with them and will post the pics tomorrow evening.

It’s not easy having fans!  :|

Everything I painted is in that last shot.

I meant how many games did you pull your pieces from. Those didn’t all come from one game. Did they?

Ah… For all five base nations, I’m doing double what comes in a Spring 1942 set (plus tacts and Mech Inf of course).

Also for this set, (as requested) I used fighters from both P1940 and Guadalcanal.
