Custom paint jobs: D-Day

Sweet, thanks man. I’ll give it a shot!

I could help with financing?

Dice would have either land or naval with a separate category of Air because that branch overlaps both

Symbols for land: ( green) 6 dice in set
Infantry x 1
Armour x1
Mech x1
Artillery x2
Blank x1

Symbols for Naval: ( blue) 6 dice in set

Battleship x1
Cruiser x1
Destroyer x1
Submarine x2
Blank x1

Symbols for Air: (white) 6 dice in set

Fighter x2
Fighter-Bomber x2
Strategic Bomber x 2

No Trenacker. Just get a white primer and don’t forget to put on some sort of clear coat after to protect them.

YGH…

It will add the enthusiasm for sure to do more videos!

@cyanight:

Everyone has their own unique way of painting the pieces.  No matter how we paint the pieces they must still be playable within the game.

And the nice difference between game sculpts and real military equipment is that sculpts are rarely lost or damaged in combat.  If that wasn’t the case, people might actually hesitate to risk sending their painted sculpts into battle on the game map, given the large amount of time they’ve spent on customizing them.  :-)

I have looked at I-94’s decals and thought about it… the only ones I have trouble with are the Russian stars. I enjoy hand painting the insignia and I feel like it makes it look more uniform when it’s all paint, but like you said, it would definitely save some time  :lol:

Well you could save some effort there as Moscow ordered upper wing stars to be painted out on the eve of the German invasion……plain green was also changed to green with a black disruptive camo pattern   http://mig3.sovietwarplanes.com/index.html

I didn’t know that they painted over the top-wing stars. Thanks for sharing! If I were to paint them again, I’d probably leave them on or use decals, just for easy recognition on the game board, but I like knowing what was historically accurate.
