@Steel:

What tanks are they currently using for Italians, Japanese?
Maybe you could paint up one of each and then see which looks better.

At the moment I’d  say use Japanese tanks for the Italians and British tanks for the French.

Then again, have you considered painting some US Shemans up for the British and French as well? Especially in the Pacific, the British used almost exculsively US built armor. Personally I liked the revised Sherman sculpt a little better then 1942 edition for the earlier look.

Didn’t think about Japanese tanks for Italy - good call. Yea, I’m rethinking the French units too. Deciding all that soon. Good suggestions though.

UPDATE

Soviet Union Navy

Soviet Union Subs

Soviet Union Transports

Soviet Union Destroyers

Soviet Union Cruisers

Soviet Union Carriers

Soviet Union Battleships

Soviet Union Navy - Flat Scheme

Soviet Union  Navy - Disruptor Camo

Soviet Union Navy - Complete

The Soviet Navy was tough… Not much was known about their paint schemes and there isn’t much information out there as far as color pictures or blueprints. I found bits from several sources and had to fill in the gaps. The disruptor pattern was mainly used on destroyers in northern regions.  I basically improvised the carrier decks but am pretty happy with the way they turned out.

I’ll probably be busy relearning Spanish and possibly painting my ‘Descent: Journeys Into the Dark’ set.

Haha, I was joking, but that’s awesome. Some Winter War Finnish troops could be cool. Maybe the Greeks too.

At most, I’ll do the same as I’m doing for the Union Jack UK and neutrals… Maybe 5-10 infantry. Nunca mas.
