I will be adding pictures to my German thread on the 1939 HBG map, but not tonight, because I’m tired. All pictures of my painted pieces will always wind up in their perspective country’s thread, on a map.

Thanks again. :-)

Those are incredible John. Very good work. I love the camo scheme you used and the color for the decks.

CWO Marc

Superb paint job! My congratulations!

John Brown

Thank you both.

I was worried at first, how I was going to tie it all together, but through trial and error, I just kept working on it. The carrier decks were the hardest, because it took five coats for that color, and then scotch taping the lines of the deck took awhile.

I didn’t ink wash or dry brush, because I don’t know how to, not make a mess, with a tri-colored camouflage.

It didn’t workout for me. I kept messing my paint job up, or I was doing something wrong.

I don’t know which.

I thought it Ok, for this being my first navy to paint.

Thanks again, guys. :-)

Thanks DK. I appreciate it.

When I use ink or wash its very important to make sure the piece is really dry. Sometimes I let them dry a couple days. I’m not sure if that is what your talking about with the camo running together. Regardless, I think you did a fantastic job!

I tried to do a grey wash, but it was making the white and grey, dirty looking, but I appreciate that you all have enjoyed them. :-D

Pretty cool man. I like your take on the HBG subs. Very unique.

Thanks LHoffman, I wanted something outside the norm on the subs. I’m glad you liked them. :-D

Cheers!

Really nice work John I’m loving the uboats. I wonder what other nations submarines would look like now with a camo scheme.

Japan, Italy, Russia, France, Anzac and the UK, I have special plans for those countries.

Not sure what I’m going to do for the US, but I have some off the wall ideas, but I will be on Germany for awhile. I still have over 250 pieces to do. Germany by far will have more pieces, because of the 3D units, then the US and Japan will have a lot as well.

Phew, I’m winded thinking about it, LOL. :-D
