DTROY, I don’t know what to say, I’m speechless... happy and healthy first, than early if possible, there will be another event for you, but now would also be great. Thank you for everything you are, you’re son is strong and handsome like his Dad.
The Cliffside Bunker YG....I am very happy that you like and approve of the game pieces that I painted. I hope the collection is worthy of the event in a small way. I believe that the tournament will be a success and that it was all made possible by your energy and enthusiasm and charisma. Thankyou for your kind words I do very much appreciate them. You are a good friend and I look forward to finaly meeting you in person if and when I do make it to the event.
Good to see you are still active! Awsome job you did! I can really see you are getting better every time! I never painted at this scale! Must be difficult. But you did a great job! Good health to your wife and baby to come!
TripleA Xray.... Thanks for your commentary and support Tripple A.....I always try to get better. Every time I paint I learn something new that I had failed to see before. There is always room for improvement.....
TripleA Xray ...I suggest that you attempt painting your own minis. Its most definitely a rewarding experience and by the way thanks for your well wishes.
D: I am sure you will do very well on your upcoming exan. Congratulations on your blessed new arrival. Your new German pieces, I think, are your best work perhaps. Well done! I hope you are able to attend the tournament and meet our Guru, Mr. Harris. All the best.
Ben Moeller ...thanks so much for your on going suport and well wishes. I think I will agree with you on your assessment of the minis. I think these are probably the best I have painted and I hope that the lucky winner will enjoy the collection. Glad to hear from you again my friend and once again thabks for your support. It means much to me.
Good to see you back, D-Troy. I watched this video yesterday and then poof it was gone. You did an awesome job on the painted pieces. If this prize is available and I get to select I'll be taking this one for sure.
GeneralHandGrenade ....I am sorry about yesterday's video...unfortunately I failed to realize that there was too much ambient noise. So I decided to delete the video and post a new one. Thanks for your compliment and I wish you the best in the tournament.
Mark movel ....thanks Mark for your insight. I guess the Leipzig class light cruiser was indeed at least 160 feet longer than the Narvik class destroyers. For gaming purposes it kind of does bother me when my game pieces are not proportional to each other. It takes away from the realism that proportion brings to the game when playing.
Great job brother! As we talked about, as a constructive criticism that you asked for, the white drybrushing is a slight hair too much, in my opinion, but don't get me wrong, the pieces look Amazing. The Panzer Grey and late war looks great! Late war German camouflage is sometimes referred to as Dunkelgelb (Dark Yellow). It is a tri-color scheme, the other colors are Olivgrun(olive green) and Rutbraun(red brown). Very late in the war, supplies were short and some camouflage was done in only two tones. Infantry looks good, I like the different tones on the gear, epilettes and collars, great detail work. The Kriegsmarine looks good! I think the "super" battleships of Gerrmany were scrapped or halted as Germany needed the steel in other areas like subs, and armor. "Okay, now thats just not fair!" The luftwaffe are not actually miniatures, but rather look like a real squadron just landed. Those planes are simply amazing! The "weathering" on the units is a great effect that can bring realism and an "action" look into the piece. A match of A&A, You and your son meets myself and my boy. We'll make it happen brother! Great to have The Garrison out there again. Best wishes to you and your wife and family on the upcoming arrival of your son. If future fortunes hold that you are able to go to YG's tournament then I will be in A&A heaven with lots of You Tubers there, the man himself, Larry Harris, and the "godfather" of A&A You Tube! Talk to you soon brother!
The BIG 'E' A&A ....I am glad that you liked the painted game pieces and that you approve of them. Your opinion is very much appreciated as well as your insight and recommendation. You are an experienced painter and what you have to say does matter. I do look forward to making the trip and meeting you as well as the other guys. It will be quite a moment and not one that I will forget. Also, thanks for the well wishes and with God's favor my wife will deliver a beautiful healthy little boy. We can wait for Jeremy to make his arrival.
AWESOME!!! Congratulations on the new kid! I dunno how ya do it, my two kids are enough of a handful I don't need any more. Great to see ya back, I can't make it to the tournament 'cuz stupid work, but I'm gonna watch the hell outta whatever is posted. Great job on painting the pieces, I really dig the weathered look. I finally posted my Engineer Rules video if ya wanna check it out, but it's only for '42 2nd Edition since I haven't had time to download and print and magnetize YG's map. I'm glad to see you're happy and healthy my friend!
WarParty! At the Outpost .....How are you my brother? Its always good to hear from you. Thanks for your blessings and too bad you cant make it to the tournament. I myself am not sure if I am yet going but I am hoping to make it. Glad that you finally finished your combat engineer rules. I will definitely check out your video.
WarParty! At the Outpost I think its a pretty cool looking miniature. I enjoyed painting that particular miniature, it has allot of built in detail which makes it more enjoyable when painting.
siredblood ...lol...I always forget to change the Damn batteries...thanks for your compliment Sired. Your collection is second to none. You don't have to replace anything.
Ze Germans couldn't spare the steel for a super battleship 'cuz they needed it for tanks and planes. They never really had an impressive navy 'cuz they were locked in a land war on two fronts. The Japanese on the other hand, were almost the reverse, having an impressive navy but very little in the way of tanks.
WarParty! At the Outpost ....Yes, the Germans simply did nit have the resources to fight all of its enemies. The geographical location of Germany in Europe did not help out either. Geography, lack of resources and a crazy madman as dictator all combined to bring about the defeat of Germany.
Super job on these brother!
Some guy is going to be fortunate to get these pieces.
I know the work you put in them.
Kudos and Cheers!
John Brown
John Brown Thanks my brother....I appreciate your support. I hope who ever gets this collection will get much enjoyment out of it.

Beautiful job,,,hope to see you there in Toronto...Lepzig class light cruiser was 580 feet versus the Narvik class destroyer which was 420 feet

I really dig the weathering!
DTROY Just imagine your painted pieces are now sitting on display in the master creator’s personal studio. Isn’t that incredible ?!Tef

Im going. It would be great to meet you.
Are you flying or are you driving?
Taking a bus across the border, then flying
Hunter Jones ....well, that sounds like a good idea. It definitely beats driving all the way to Toronto..
Hey homie! How’s it going?
Rainy, Cold, and long days. Wassup?

The Norvik looks kinda like a merchant raider vessel.

Haha! I was just thinkin' how they used the 88 as an anti-tank weapon! Wonder if there is a way to work that inta our house rules...
WarParty! At the Outpost ...Mmmm...interesting idea. Do you have anything in mind.
Damn bro, I want them! Problem is... I'll have to repaint my entire game to match your quality!.... also change the battery in the smoke detector :)
siredblood ...lol...I always forget to change the Damn batteries...thanks for your compliment Sired. Your collection is second to none. You don't have to replace anything.
I'm surprised it's still chirping, it's been well over a year lol
siredblood ...hey this time it was the fire alarm upstairs in the family room....for some reason it sounds louder in the video.....lol.
Will anybody ever change that battery in the smoke alarm. Its a 9 volt BTW
Lol....I purposefully left it so that it would annoy you...
