@Harvard3X1 Thanks for the comment :)
The Panther is the regular panzer. The Tiger 2 is SS-Panzer and the E100 is Heavy SS- Panzer
The SS-Panzer can be produced by a max of 4 from round “late 1942” and cost 2 IPC upgraded from a normal panzer in Berlin. Attack at 4 and defend at 5
The Heavy SS-Panzer can be produced by a max of 2 from round “late 1944” and cost 2 IPC upgraded from a SS-Panzer in Berlin. Attacks and Defends at 5 and uses 2 dice. Its has 2 Hit Points as capital ships.

Looking good, keep up the great work. Are you putting any kind of protective clear coat on your pieces?

Thanks.
Yes. I do Antique Black Minwax as an under-coat as opposed to primer. Then I dip them in Anitique Walnut or Classic Oak depending on the paint scheme. You can paint a dull coat over that if you want but I like the shiney "Micro Machine " look. They look much better than these pics when they’re on the table with the Minwax. Not on ly that it makes the little suckers bullet-proof. -
Carriers and subs done.

Ah, yes – I have some of those guys in my collection. You did a good job giving them a new vocation in life!

LOL thanks Marc. I still have no idea what to do with them. I used them to practice painting with a few months ago. I have them painted in so many schemes I thought of using them as mercenaries or rebels in some of my other non-Axis & Allies games.
Those ones in that particular photo were painted months ago but I didn’t “dip” them until today. The photo doesn’t show it well but, those particular ones are in various colors and paint schemes. I have mentally referred to them as my “Occupy Hasbro” assault force.

Thank you, Tall Paul. That means quite a bit considering your fine collection of custom painted pieces. There is so much amazing work going on around here!

This photo inspired me to paint some early USN carrier aircraft.

Nice picture and good job painting your sculpts similarly. My guess is that this is pre-war photo, possibly of a training squadron. The US eliminated the red dot from its aircraft roundel shortly after the war broke out, since it resembled too much the red disc of the Japanese roundel, so the picture pre-dates December 1941. And as I recall from the Technicolor film “Dive Bomber” with Fred MacMurray, the USN used a yellow paint scheme for its trainers.

Thanks Marc.

Great work! Makes me want to give it a try - although magnetizing my carriers may come first…

Yes, I can see why this might be a more, um, attractive option.
