@LHoffman:

Nice work John! Those Avengers look much better with the decal stripes. Glad I could help a bit. Can’t quite tell if you did or not, but I also touched up any breaks in the stripes (especially where it wraps around the back of the rudder) with matching red and white paint. In such small areas, you can’t really tell the difference and it improves the overall look. Happy to see it worked out for you.

Love the Warhawks. That US roundel is bold and beautiful on that desert scheme.

Thanks LHoffman! To answer, I was just happy to get them on. I’m planning doing 3 more in the same scheme and try to round it off and match it like your talking about.

I have 8 US hell divers with this same scheme that I have to decal. I probably start with these next week to try to do as you say.

Those decals on the desert fighters are really cool, and a real eye catcher.

Glad you like them and thanks for your help!

Cheers!

@Spitfire38:

Those look great! I’d have to agree with LHoffman - the desert scheme is really crisp. Best of luck with your other pieces in the coming weeks.

Thanks buddy! I appreciate it. :-D

Well guys, I finally got the courage to paint ground units for the first time.

After watching Big E’s painting tutorial video, gave me the confidence that I could this. I knew I could, but I needed that extra nudge.

siredblood is going to do an infantry tutorial, and I think after watching his video, will give me the confidence and nudge I need to just do it.

You all know I can paint ships and planes, but now I have finally painted ground units, and I think I did alright.

Thanks to all you guys on the forums, especially my commissioned spitfire38 and to all the you tubers, who have helped me.

I hope you like these! :-D
