Flames of war painting accuracy dilemma.

[wilder]

Hello I am looking forward to painting my FOW army and can't decide if i go as historical as possible or how much or at all iam a fan of TANK GIRL so help?

historically speaking at the high end i will have mismatch paints the firefly is bronze green and my Sherman are khaki green my kangaroos are what ever thay had available. I am thinking about looking at the army as a whole it will not be uniform does that matter i will be fielding groups of it and help define my unit's help me and my appoint see the firefly the greener one.

Historical lower end go with a uniform look with historical paint just one or so try and keep the history without nitpicking like the khaki green on all my tanks APC ext.

No historical context tank girl (not the movie fuck the movie) its a fun wild ride anything goes with the background set up from the comics i can go with Anything each tank will be unique and have spunk and character this painting job will take the longest to do i think not as much prep as the historical.

Please don't hold back your thoughts lets get into it.

Just because it's a historical game, doesn't mean that it is a historical reenactment game. Do what you really want to do, because at the end of the day, it is just for fun. If you get too caught up on the history, it can sometimes get too close to home for some people. Real people actually died in these conflicts, and everyone in the world was touched in some way. If you like the history, go for it. But don't worry about the history being a necessity.

Also, at the end of the day... There's Warren at Beasts of War to lighten the mood...

Personally im going to try and be as on point historically as possible, but having said that, whatever works best for you than go for it.

No one should feel like they should have to do something they dont want to.

Ah the StuGs of the Nachtwulfen, good times

As for the painting, go with what works for you. What matters is what you're comfortable with.

Truth be told, I half expect to see someone to paint a Panther pink as part of a joke, and that's fine. So long as it's not my Panthers being painted pink then I'm good with that

No, there will be no Pink Panther award at FOXMEM, just to head that off now.
