Painted playing pieces

[poloplayer15]

wow these are great!!! i especially like the German desert camo and the black machine gun scorches on the American dive bombers.

[Krieghund]

Nice work!

[McLovin1985]

They have a nice ‘rustic’ look to them! Add some bullet holes and that’d be pretty badass. Nice work man!

[Commander JayVon]

Lovin’ those Japanese carriers and German armor pieces!

Thanks all for the kind words. The armour desert colours are modelmaster valejjo yellow ochre with yellow ochre/buff mix for highlights.
the planes are buff base with buff with a tiny bit of white added for highlights.

for the gun smoke staines i just use a very fine and very very dry brush with practicly any paint left on it and sweep the brush at the wing and away until it applies enough paint.

i like the variety of japanese carrier designs i just wish i could keep my hands straight for lines and symbols

[Gargantua]

i like to see other peoples paint work styles and preferences.
There is alot to paint though some countries can be  put on low priority like russian ships,you dont see too many of them being built in a game.

some good painting there. some straight lines unlike mine on the carriers.

may i suggest trying washes on your battle ships NOT the aircraft carriers though. the batle ships have lots of nooks and detail for a dark grey or brown wash to pull out the detail.
