Planes, Planes and more planes

[afilter]

The other Naval wargame I am heavily invested in is WoTC War at Sea. Infact it is my WWII War at Sea models I am using to play Naval Thunder.

Recently I discovered a need for some planes that are "phantom" units in War at Sea meaning that WoTC does not have a model for them and just expects players to use a token.

Well being a mini wargamer a "token" is not acceptable, so I decided to make minis to represent these "phantom" units. They were a big hit on the other web forum and I am now making and selling them for my fellow gamers that don't model and paint.

These planes are CAP AERO 1/1200 which work well for any wargaming in general and will be a great alternative for War at Sea.

These are and example of what I have done so far:

Green "Rufe":


Gray "Rufe" :



PBY Catalina :


FW200 Condor :


B-17 :


HMS Fencer Marker (Seafire) :


L-P Scoutplane:


"Jake" Gray:


"Jake" Green:


USN Kingfisher:


I currently have 100 planes in the works to fill existing orders and have some stock on hand.

Once I complete these....on to completing my RJW Japanese fleet.

Cap Aero has a nice selection of aircraft models that fill voids for many of the 1/1200-1250 collectors. Prices are reasonable, if you don't mind doing your own painting.

Just out of curiosity, how did you paint the Japanese red meatballs?

I find the classic toothpick metod works best.

Before I started filling requests this is what I had on hand. I completed 100 yesterday AM and had close to 150 total.


I am only keeping 9 for my own use.
