Guys,

––Here’s another FINISHED pic of the Japanese KI-61 “Tony” Army Fighters painted in the South Seas scheme and Red “squadron colors” just because.  :-D Notice the “F” decals that denote then as Fighters. Enjoy!

@coachofmany:

Good looking paint job!
**––I’m glad you enjoyed it.
----The paint job only adds to the extremely well-detailed model that you guys at HBG produced.

----And let me take this opportunity to express my Thanks to YOU for the extremely NICE LOOKING British Set that you just released. WOW! Bravo!

jwo & others,

@jwo1984:

looks fantastic!
––Glad you liked them.
will any zeros get the south sea camo scheme as well ?
**––Well, before then you’ll probably see:
4-“Val” Dive Bombers
1-“Gekko” Long-Range Fighter
1-“Topsy” Air Transport
4-“Nell” Medium Bombers, and
probably some units from HBG’s ISLAND WARFARE Set,…the first of many sets in HBG’s Global Warfare-1939 Expansion Sets
before you see any “zeros” in the “South Seas Camo” scheme.

––I’m guessing and hoping by that time HBG will have produced a well-detailed version of a “zero” so I can add them to the “South Seas Forces”.

----I have 2 dozen of the HBG “Oscar” Army Fighter,….but I’ve decided that I probably will not have any painted in the South Seas scheme. They will be painted in the Green “Mainland” scheme as well as the “Winter” scheme for service in the Siberia/Manchuria/Russia theater.

Guys,

––Well, here are the FINISHED pics of the Japanese G-8N “Rita” Heavy Bombers in the South Seas Camo scheme with the gameboard as a backdrop rather than the workbench. These are the units with Yellow stripe and nose “squadron colors”. Notice the “H” decal that denotes them as Heavy Bombers. Enjoy!

Guys,

@Spitfire38:

That South Seas camo looks really great!
––Glad you like it. The scheme really does seem to add to the effect of
“camo-clad jungle forces in the tropics”.
Props to the men behind the scenes
––Well, I agree. And in this case it would be two main people.
----First off,…that would be HBG for making the wonderful units available to us all,…and
----“Allworkandnoclay” is responsible for 100% of the paint jobs on ALL of these Japanese aircraft units.

FINISHED pics of the Japanese G-8N “Rita” Heavy Bombers in the Mainland paint scheme. This pic shows the Yellow engine cowling, propeller spinner, and fuselage stripe “Squadron Colors”. Notice the “H” decal that denotes it as a Heavy Bomber. Enjoy!

Excellent!  Love the canopy detail.

cyanight & others,

@cyanight:

Excellent!  Love the canopy detail.
**––I’m glad you liked them. These were the first aircraft that “Allworkandnoclay” painted for me,…and I noticed that the canopy lines weren’t as fine or sharp as the ones that “LHoffman” painted on the Luftwaffe aircraft he did. Well, he QUICKLY improved the cockpit frame lines on the following aircraft,…he said it was simply experience coming through but I think he just put his proffesional talent to work on it. I know he’s a lot more proud of his aircraft work since these were done,….and rightly so. “Allwork” is THE MAN!

Nice Collection!

[Tall Paul]

Doug and others,

@coachofmany:

Nice Collection!
**––I also have some SHAPEWAYS G-5N “Liz” 4-engine Heavy Bombers to add to the mix,…once they’re painted that is. They look somewhat like a Japanese B-24 “Liberator”, just different. I’ll post a couple of pics below.
