More painted pieces for consideration

Japanese A&A Pacific 2nd Edition Color Match
Hey All.
If you are looking to match the default color for the Japanese, try Vallejo Liquid Acrylic 804 Transparent Orange and Model color 140 Flat Brown mixed 30 to 1 sprayed on an undercoat of 131 Orange Brown. It’s a dead match.

Thanks, Guys! I will try these Ideas out.

Thanks for all the responses, folks - exactly what I needed to hear.

Following up:

I went out and bought a can of chrome spray-paint from a Blick arts-and-crafts store, and did a few tests on some B-17’s…

I’ll post pictures if anyone wants to see them.  It looks great.  Nice, even coating… very lustrous.  With some added details I think my late-war aircraft are going to look amazing.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone.

Yeah, it was really hard to get them the way I wanted them to look. I am glad I decided to go with painting the symbols because it’s more gratifying then slapping a sticker on the pieces……in my opinion.

I’m remembering the days when Table Tactics was the top of the line expansion for Axis and Allies. When '14 was announced i went crazy trying to find the WW1 pieces. I’m still looking.

jwo1984 and others,
