What color do you paint your Turkish and Spanish Armies?
I was thinking of red for both of them.
What do you do?
No way. Spain should be a pale yellow, Turkey a shade of light brown.
Red would only be good for communist Chinese.

I considered the yellow and like it, but Turkey as a light brown, between Italy and Russia , another brown is troublesome on the eyes.
Which infantry do you use to represent Trukish and Spanish armies?
I Plan on using German pieces.
use germans for spain but consider itaians of turks
I’ve used yellow colored Xeno pieces for Spain and light-reddish colored Xeno pieces for Turkey in the past.
I like the idea of a yellow for Spain using German pieces, and a light red or red for turkey using italian pieces.
i thought your Romanians were yellow
I could use a softer yellOw for Spain, there are only so many colors to choose from unless we start using purple, pink, mint green . LOL

and thanks
Shouldn’t Turkey be turquoise?
I like IL’s suggestion of light yellow for the Spanish.
I was just scrolling down the thread to suggest turquoise for the Turkish (I had suggested for the Australians in the past before grey became the established colour for them) when I saw that Redking beat me to it. :-D Anyway, I do think it would be a good idea, if not for the Turkish then at least for another nation.
In relation to Red, I think I should point out that the FMG Soviet pieces will match the FMG Soviet dice, which are solid red and not reddish-brown.
While we are discussing colours, maybe we could suggest a list of possible remaining colours for HBG pieces, if more are needed (some of these have been suggested here previously):
Dark Grey-Green
Orange-Red (different enough to distinguish from FMG Soviet Red and OOB/FMG Japanese Orange, as necessary)
Yellow-Orange
Turquoise
Dark Navy Blue
Pale Grey-Blue
Pale Orange
Dark Yellow (but as dull as possible)
I would prefer to avoid bright and/or neon colours, together with pink and purple (although a dark or grey-ish purple might work if one was desperate for a new colour).
