Now that I finally get some more time on my hands because it ain't that crazy at my work any-more I can start posting again and also start on several of my FoW projects.
But first I have pictures of two aircraft that I got my hands on a couple of weeks ago.
First there is the P-40 Warhawk. This aircraft can be used with my US Airborne when I use them for Mid War. The aircraft is already painted and as it is painted at a nice level I see no reason to repaint it.
The second aircraft is a JU87 Stuka. This aircraft can be used in my Mid War DAK army. It can be assembled as a Stuka D (bombs) or Stuka G (Cannons). I probably go for the Stuka G option.
This aircraft isn't painted, it only has a base colour of SP04 German Armour (mid/late) or SP06 German Armour (desert) both spray-cans. I am not sure which one it is but I think it is the latter. Now I hope I can find a Vallejo colour that matches the base colour because some parts aren't painted. And of course find a nice camo colour and pattern.
Thank for reading.

Love the paintjob on the P-40. Very well done!
ReplyDelete@Ray: Can you believe that Rick, the local player who painted the P-40, wanted his FoW army thrown in the dust bin, as it was collecting dust in a LGS store kabinet anyway? That little army included 2 more P-40's, 5 76mm Shermans and a full armoured rifle platoon, also painted to a very nice level. Luckily, we managed to dissuade him from that idea...
ReplyDeleteAV: as for the Stuka: the color seems a bit too greenish for dessert camo (maybe it's just the photo). So I would just use it the yellow as an undercoat (not bothering finding the exact match), and then use your usual Africa Korps sand color as base color...
