Also, 4 out of your 10 marines are actually F4F Wildcat fighters. The Zeros and Wildcats have to do with a rule about carrier fighters with a reduced price tag and a reduced move (from 4 to 3, I seem to remember).

Once you start, you can’t stop…!
I am happy you had thought about the magnets, when i was deciding the logic way, ideal to put a metal strip on each runway…might do that if i have the time…! :lol:
The Italians… as long you can make them not the same as the Russians, only small problem with the simular shaded brown ppl found, but it’s a getting used to… of course you’ll be painting the base of each unit the Italian colour…!

Almost finished with the SU… Navies are always the most time-consuming/tedious.
On a side note - I think I’m going to use the UK tanks for Italy… They much more closely resemble the Italian Fiat M series of tanks. What do you guys think?
-
Can you put all the pics of units on your website. Please

Yea - most def. Also going to go back a retake some pics of the earlier units that I didn’t set up for ‘glam shots’.

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.

How long for SU navy?

I have to give my thumbs up for your work. Nice personal website also!

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.

Thanks!

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.

Soviet Union - Complete Forces
Starting on Italy this weekend! Lots of trimming and cleaning to do…

Awesome man… Once you finish all these you aren’t going to know what to do with yourself haha

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.
