@Tall:

Guys,

––I e-mailed “LHoffman” and the German Luftwaffe is finished and will be ‘winging’ it’s way home to me. That’s what I call a Christmas present(from me-to me)!
––We still need to do the JU-88s, ME-109s, and the Afrika Korps, Winter War, and Naval paint schemes. And whatever units come out in “HBG’s Global War Expansion Sets”.
––I don’t know if any of us will live long enough to see the completion of this ever-enlarging massive project,…but as long as HBG makes them, “WilTan” will modify anything necessary, and “LHoffman” and others will paint them. We will have FUN,….which should be the goal of ALL of us A&A gamers!

"Tall Paul"�  :-D

I’m excited for you. I can’t wait to see them, in person. I know it has been long wait for you, but I’m sure it was worth it. :-D

John

Cool, Paul, I can’t wait to see them in person. :-D

Wow, that is an amazing job. The details on each piece, just wow.

Very impressive!

Super awesome job on these!

Cheers! :-)

@DMcLaren:

I clarified the descriptions in the previous pictures of the Shoho in progress to make it’s origin more clear.

Thanks for clearing that up. I see the previous posts your talking about.

That is cool! :-D

DMcLaren, great job on these.

I had to take a break from painting, lol. :-D

Really, superb work. These are really good. :-)

Yes, at first I hired a painter to do my global 1940 set, but he got a new job, and started a family.

I’m currently finishing my global set.

I’m on France, now, and then Russia will be my last country to paint, then I will be painting facilities, and then I will go back to each country, and all the 1936 Global pieces that I need, then I will be painting last but not least Pro-Allies, Pro-Axis and Neutral countries.

@jonahawesome

One thing that has helped me, find inspiration, is I will google images of each piece I do.

I will also look others who have painted and that gives me, inspiration, as well.

Here are all my customization posts in the past.

I hope this helps you!

Enjoy!

Here is where you can buy Global 1936 pieces.

@brpiusosb

I paint just my own pieces, but barely have time for mine, lol, because I run a retail mattress store.

I myself, hired a painter before I ever got into painting my own pieces, his name on these forums, is Spitfire38, but he had to stop painting after college, because he landed a full time job, after school.

If you talk to the painter who paints for combat miniatures, I believe he paints, you would just have to find out if he paints a whole set or pieces and what price he charges.

He is the only one I know, right now.
