What Primer is used for prep of AA units?

@all-encompassing-goose

Nice.

Ok, if anyone is interested, I’ve added this to the Canadian Mod. There are a lot of changes which I could go into, I expect it will be a bit like Balanced Mod in that early on Allies will have the edge but if it gets popular and people understand how to play it a bit more, Axis will start to win out.

Anyone interested in playtesting? Tried one game against myself which the allies look like winning.

@Yavid:

As for me, I don’t mind having 2 colors for the “major powers,” 1 for standard troops and 1 for elites.

When everything is finished I’m going to have 2 color schemes(Europe/Pacific) for “standard” troops of all countries(except China) plus another scheme for certain areas on the map. This doesn’t include the Special Forces units.

For example, the U.K. would have units in a “European” scheme, a “Far East” scheme(shown above), a “Desert” scheme, and specific schemes for their “Airborne” and “Special Forces” units.

America, Germany, France & Italy would also have “Desert” schemes.
Russia, Germany, & China would have “Winter” schemes.
Special Forces units galore.
Etc., Etc., Etc.

Those really are amazing. � Whose your painter again?

“Allworkandnoclay” is my painter and I’m very happy with his work. I love his idea of painting the national ensigns of each country on their Infantry bases. I come up with what I want and pay for them and he paints them. As long as his eyes don’t go blind,…or I go bankrupt from paying for them, we’ll eventually get ALL of the units done. We still have a ways to go as all of the HBG and FMG units haven’t been produced yet.

@Lozmoid:

‘World Tank Museum’?

You got it right. :-D

WTM -> www.world-tank-museum.com

This is the official site and they are sold out !

But if you check for ’ 1/144 ’ on EBay, you will get a few pgs of them at all kind of prices and all kind of publishers. I got a few hundreds of them from a few of the publishers like Takara, Dragon Cando,Panzer Projekt, 21st Century etc,etc.

I also got the Panzertales collector book for WTM, in english. In this book of 98 pgs, I got almost all the tanks and more, in multiple examples.

Ok, enough bragging. :wink:

I spray mine with a white primer, then a white paint. I then use a finish to protect the paint.
Make sure you turn the piece white with the primer, the paint dos not cover as well as primer.

tank #2 = IS-2….naaa release to late in the war to get a real impact.

I don’t know where on earth you guys are getting this: it’s simply not true!  (Are you guys still confusing the IS-2 with the IS-3?)  The KV series was off of the battlefied for the second half of the war, for the most part, and replaced by the IS-2!  More IS-2’s were produced than either KV-1 or KV-2’s (or stop-gap measures such as the KV-85 for that matter) and the Soviet counter-offensive that really won the war on Germany was spearheaded by twice as many IS-2’s as Germany ever produced Tigers!

i’ve seen AAP and AAE still on shelves of the local hobby, game and comic stores in the area, might not hurt to call around to those either…
