Repainted my ANZAC pieces. I wanted the the Tanks, Mech, Adv Mech and Adv Artillery to look similar. I also repainted my ANZAC airforce and converted my old Meteor jets (shapeways) to ANZAC. Repainted ANZAC Inf and Russian air force.

John Brown

Wow, you have been busy. Great looking V-2 and Anzac Army. Love the new colors. :-D

these look good cynaight! you finally received your amerkia set! love those meteors man. Can you give me alittle review? how’s the game the pieces? lots of detail?? How are the heavy bombers ki 91 and the b48? Is the scale of the units all compatible with A&A pieces so they can easily inserted into AA games? hopefully I will have my set some time in jan 2016

Thanks

cyanight

The set has a lot of detail. The pieces all look like they could fit with other global pieces. The Heavy tanks might be the exception since they are kinda large especially the Japanese heavy tank. I wish they included the Maus, T28 and Japanese Project Z bomber. They have prototypes for these pieces so maybe HBG will make them available later as expansion sets. I am very pleased with the set.

I repainted my Italian tanks, mech and Adv. Mech.

Added Adv Artillery fromt he Amerika set. Im using the German Artillery from Amerika for the Italian Adv Artillery. I think its very close the to the Italian Semovente M90/35 90mm self-propelled gun.

Also added the Caproni Campini N.1 Italian Jet fighters. After doing some research it looks like this was the first jet fighter built in WW2.

John Brown

Cyanight, your on a roll. Glad to see you painting again. Superb job, on your Italians. :-D

When you say repaint, do you just paint over the old paint job or do you soak them in spirits or something to strip them?

Also, where did you get the jet fighters? They look great!

cyanight

I just painted over the old paint. It does lose some definition with extra coats as you can see the tanks in the back have been painted many times. I repainted them so they could all look similar.

The Italian Jets are from HBG.

Wow man great work cyanight! Really like the refitted Italian armour here. Mussolini is breakin the bank with new paint jobs and jet fighters clearly! ….great med style colors with your browns. Any chance I can talk you into a lower degree lacquer sheen buddy?? lol your getting nicer and nicer details as you paint on and that wicked shine can sometimes kill some of it ! just my opinion… but very awesome! I really like your variety of units for each country, it’s the best I think we have seen out there!

cyanight

Oh, I know the clear gloss does change the colors and hide’s some detail. The only reason I keep painting them with gloss is because the other pieces are already glossed. I’m thinking about trying that spray that deshines or deglosses the piece without having to repaint it. If that works it would be easy to apply to the other pieces. Thanks again for your comments :)

Is it possible to include the Maginot Line imprinted on the map? Next to the France-Western Germany, France-Switzerland, and the France-Northern Italy borders, within the France territory. (Literally by the border side). The line should be represented by design line of a series of pillboxes.

The rule regarding it. Enemy units entering France from either of those three territories will be shot at prior to combat, for one round, at a value of 1, any units selected as casualties from a successful attack are removed prior to the main battle. After France is captured, this rule no longer takes effect for the remainder of the game.

Change Shanghai out for Nanking, the actual capital of China.

The big thing is, more victory cities. Kiev, Oslo, Vladivostok, Singapore, are on my mind right now, more additions would be great.

cyanight

Those are interesting. I have many projects going on right now but maybe in the future I could make these changes.
