My friend got into Flames of war and he is doing a Soviet Guard Tank army.
As a treat I painted up a 15mm P39 for his airpower. He didn't have the army points for a Shturmovik, but I think this will be just as good.
I just took a few quick shots before I gave it away...
my P47 is sitting on the shelf. ![:D](http://www.tacticalwargames.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

The base detail.
His army is entirely based on the Russian spring thaw...i.e. Mud and yuck and lots of it. So I did the plane base to match.

I think that looks great Luis, particularly with the canopy and the glass effects. Well done mate!

WOW !!! Very Nice ! More P-39s were used by the USSR then the USA, IIRC ?! But an interesting historical note. My Mom, worked on the P-39s, she was a welder/riveter. She was what US history calls a " Rosy the Riveter" ! So my Dad was an Inf SGT in WWII and my Mom built P-39s ... My history note for today ! Again, great work, C/C - FlyBoy ! ![:D](http://www.tacticalwargames.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Luis,
I've been thinking all week about the magnetic base you used on this P39. ?Intiall I was thinking about a solution for the diecast Hueys I have for my 15mm marines, but had discarded it. ? But of course, the better application would be...for Aeronefs!
Can you please provide me with more details of this clever pole basing method?
thanks!

My one game with the magnets was that WWI game I had pics of here at the fourm. Thats was my first pratical test case.
I found the magnets to be very strong and more than capable of taking the gaming abuse. That game concinved me to use magenets on all my games Space and Air.
