The most elegant battleship damage marker solution is here!
All battleships are magnetized and come with magnetized damage markers. Never mess with markers, tokens or turning your ship on it’s side to represent hits. Damage markers don’t fall off when you move the ship around. Super battleships support 2 damage markers on the fore and aft turrets. Regular battleships and battlecruisers have one magnetized turret.
The EBard sculpt is approximately 69.5 x 11mm (LxW). The HBG Yamato sculpt is 66.5 x 9.5mm. The A&A OOB sculpt is 58.5 x 9mm.
Here is a comparison for visual reference.
The EBard sculpt is intentionally larger than other EBard A&A scale battleships to represent its massive size and power over contemporaries. The sculpt itself has amazingly fine detail that you won’t find elsewhere.
Here are my latest British ships from EBard Models & HBG.
The Nelson class battleship by EBard Models is a highly detailed 3D printed sculpt shown here painted & decaled with authentic hull camouflage.
HMS Furious is a very nice 3D printed sculpt from HBG:
The HMS Vanguard by HBG is also 3D printed and makes a great addition to your fleet.

This is the definitive Yamato class 3D print sculpt from EBard Models.
Available in both the 1941 configuration and the 1944 configuration. EBard’s attention to detail is amazing and is befitting the king of battleships. Available as either the Yamato, Mushashi, Shinano or Kii.
I’ve painted it and added precise decals to the sculpt to bring it to life. It clearly surpasses the typical 3D print level. In finished form it becomes a conversation piece. This is my flagship game piece.
Here is the 1941 configuration with 6" secondary armament on each side:
Here is the 1944 configuration devoid of secondary side armament and loaded with anti-aircraft guns:

Here are my latest ship customizations, the CV-4 Ranger and CV-7 Wasp. These two ships have been missing from my aircraft carrier lineup. Now I have all the US aircraft carriers available from the Lexington class to the Midway class.
The Ranger & Wasp have highly detailed flight decks and authentic hull camouflage. As you can see, the realism is taken to the next level. There simply isn’t anything else like them offered on the market. These look good in pictures but they don’t quite capture the magic of holding one in your hand.
Both are fully magnetized to hold two aircraft.
The Ranger is a 3D print sculpt from EBard Models.
The Wasp is also a 3D print sculpt from EBard Models.

Hello, the store url is shown in the posting - www.axisandalliesboardgaming.com.
Here is a preview of my new 3D print cruiser - USS Cleveland CL-55.
The level of detail on this ship is incredible. This sculpt was created and scaled by EBard for Axis & Allies. I’ve taken it and added custom decals and paint to create something uniquely special. This piece establishes a new level of quality and will become a conversation piece during your next game. Check out the exacting deck details (I think the top down view photo shows this best).

The new 3D print aircraft carriers, battleships and cruisers are bring your game to the next level. The sculpts are scaled for A&A by EBard. The level of detail on these pieces is frankly stunning. Nothing you’ve seen comes close to these finished pieces. Check these out!
Here are the Northampton, New Orleans and Atlanta.

I have finished the British Mosquito and Halifax decal kits compatible with E40/P40 OOB game pieces.
These kits make 6 fully detailed game pieces. The Mosquito has two camouflage color schemes to choose from - early war and late war.
I use color to differentiate land-based aircraft from the naval versions and only allow naval pieces to perform carrier operations. I use the grey color scheme to signify naval capability.

Here is the underside view.
The Halifax heavy bomber decal kit also makes 6 fully detail bombers.

Here is the rest of my Dauntless line up. The pre-war version is here as we’ve been discussing. I also have an early-war and mid-war variants painted with an Intermediate Blue upper color for historical accuracy and a lighter underside color. The late-war version might seem boring in comparison, but the dark sea blue color really makes them “pop” when loaded on an aircraft carrier.
I always include insignia on both sides of the fuselage and on upper and lower wing surfaces. After seeing planes from other custom painters, I found that not everyone does this. It does take longer to produce but I think the end result is worth it.
Here is my 3D print CV-9 Essex loaded with an F4U and a late war Dauntless.
Here is my HBG version of the Essex class carrier CV-11 Intrepid loaded with a late war F4F Wildcat and Dauntless.
I think these planes look great and I hope you do too.
@John-Brown All the colors except for the nose cone, is a decal. Both the cowling and fuselage stripes are decals. I could not paint such a straight line myself so I resort to decals. The end result, in my opinion, is excellent.
@Mr-Kell I’m working on Ju-87’s now. Will be available shortly. Still fussing with the canopy to get it looking as good as the Dauntless. I will post pictures here when I’m finished.
@Mr-Kell I couldn’t confirm that only the Marines used this color scheme. It just seemed like all the pictures I looked at were from Marine squadrons so I attributed this specific scheme to the Marines. Perhaps because of their better media exposure they have more pictures than the Navy squadrons? Anyway, I do like the final output, and the canopy turned out really nice. I just don’t have the hand-eye coordination that some do to paint these so I have to rely on other methods. And I am creating a DIY decal set for the Dauntless game piece and is due out soon.
Hello, This is Greg with AxisandAlliesBoardgaming.com. I’ve finished my Dauntless paint schemes and would like to share theme with you. The showcase piece is the Marine version of the Dauntless. I just love the distinctive color scheme of the period with the yellow upper wings and the colorful use of red striping. All faithfully recreated here on a base of Humbrol Polished Aluminum Metal Cote paint that gives these pieces a unique sheen. I think you’ll appreciate them as much as I do.
These planes look striking when loaded onto carriers like my 3D print CV-6 Enterprise shown here.

Yes, that is what it means - the circle and the feet cut outs are already made so they fit the infantry base exactly.

Hello everyone. I wanted to share my latest Essex class carrier customization.
There is a famous picture of an Essex class carrier where the hull camouflage is prominently displayed. I wanted to reproduce this late war hull pattern for piece and give it a deck a similar style as my other US carriers.
I used this image as my source for port and starboard hull camouflage patterns and color scheme.
This game piece is from HBG and it is sold in 5 packs, so I gave them deck numbers 9-13.
I’ve added two magnets so they hold 2 aircraft each. You can find these on my site here.
All my decals are precisely cut with a digital cutting machine so all you have to do is soak the decals in water for about 10 seconds and the decal will release from the backing paper. Then you can apply to the infantry base.
If you look very closely, you can see a thin cut a from the units’ feet to the edge of the roundel. This closeup of national flags that I also produce shows the thin cut well on the right side of the right foot. All you have to do is maneuver the decal into place on the base. No cutting is necessary!
I have created a new line of roundel decals for A&A infantry units.
The USA and UK players have different roundel options for the Global 1940 game to differentiate commands - US ETO, US PTO, UK ETO, UK FEC and UK SEAC.
I also have specialty roundels to add customized capabilities to your game.
