I have had a 3D printer hobbyist CAD design a new BB playing piece and a new DD playing piece.
The BB is based on the WW1 UK Iron Duke modified for appearance. It is, certainly, better looking than the original BB design. Additionally, I (we) used a depiction of a WW1 US 4 stacker DD to make a modified DD playing piece for A&A WW1. The rationale that the Sub replaces the need for a DD just doesn’t ‘cut it’ (make sense). Most of the colour filaments used to 3D print these units are a good match to the original playing piece colours. I will post pictures of these as I have assistance doing so.

Very nice! Especially the armor.
Looks like the board is rather cluttered though. :wink:

Awesome.
I love how many painted sets are showing up.
Even though I’ve not played A&A in a number of years some of you may not have even reached yet,
the potential of what the game experience could be like get my juices flowing to get my games to look
as playable as possible not just by the mechanics but the inherent ADD of men and boys to have toy Soldiers.
Keep 'em coming. -
Koba and Others,
––Like Wil just said,…I’m very happy that so many people are now painting their A&A units. IMHO, It can make such a difference in the atmosphere of a game, not to mention the “Cool Factor”.
----And I must say,…Nice Job on your painted units. always appreciate seeing others paint jobs, and yours are really nice!
––Also,…I’m glad that Wil’s “juices are flowing” more now, because when he get’s really “pumped up” he starts pumping out some “magic” of his own in the form of new or highly modified units. More Fun for everyone!“Tall Paul”
