John Brown's Painted Axis and Allies Pieces

@John:

Thanks, I may try that. The yellow is the main color I’m having trouble, and this might help me if the water doesn’t do it.

I think, my patience, also has been a factor. I’m learning you can’t rush when your painting.

Thanks so much for this info. This helps me a lot. :-)

Definitely cannot rush with yellow or white (and sometimes red).  Several nice thin coats, fully dry in between is the way to go.

Thanks, I’m finally figuring this out. Thanks again for all your help. This definitely teaches you patience, LOL. :-D

Guys, I’m hoping next week I will have phase three of the Luftwaffe done by the middle of next week. I think you will like this set, better, than the last two. I’m improving each set. I’m hoping by the time I get to phase five of the Luftwaffe, I will be better at noses and smoother lines.

If I improve by then, when the German set comes out, I will redo the first two schemes with the new and improved planes.

For those that have seen the new German 3D set, this next phase of the German Luftwaffe will have the Me-323 in the desert camo scheme.

I also have painted one in the green camo scheme as well.

The 2 Do-X German sea planes will be in my phase five of the German Luftwaffe.

Be on the lookout for those.

I really enjoyed doing the desert scheme and took more time doing it, and I think you will agree, it showed.

By not putting pressure on myself and taking my time, hopefully, you will see more improvement with my painting.

I hope so! Cheers to you all for your help.

It is fun and I’m learning a lot from you. :-D

Great news guys, I got the desert camo done earlier than expected. I will be posting pictures of phase three of the German Luftwaffe, later this afternoon or evening.

I will have 29 planes.

One is in green camo scheme to go along with the last set, the others will be in various desert patterns.

The green camo is the new HBG Me-323 transport plane, also done in a desert pattern.

I hope you will like this next set. It was fun to do, and I really enjoyed doing them.

Cheers! :-D

Phase Three of Five Camo Schemes of the German Luftwaffe

**German Luftwaffe Painted in the Desert Camo Scheme consisting of 28 planes, and I painted one Me-323 transport Plane in the Green Camo Scheme from the last phase of the Luftwaffe. I really hope you all enjoy these pictures. :-D

The first two pictures are of the Me-323 Transport Planes in the Green Camo Scheme and the Cheetah desert scheme.**

The desert sun beat down on the allied armored patrol as they were making their way through the canyons, but like a lamb left for the slaughter, the predatory big cats caught them by surprise, then there was nothing but carnage. The flames from the wreckage said it all. It was not a good day for the allies.

The next two pictures will have all the planes in the desert schemes together.

[John Brown]

The next two pictures are planes in the cheetah desert scheme.

[John Brown]

The next two pictures are what I call tiger desert scheme. Probably not historical accurate, but really wanted to do this for my set. :-D

[John Brown]

The next two pictures are the regular German desert scheme.
