    Hi, thanks a lot!

    Re: plane counters, I pretty much photoshopped them out of googled images, available blueprint drawings etc; there was no single source I used. I’m attaching my sheet for planes of the Pacific theatre: you’ll find Zeroes, Kates, Vals, Wildcats, Devastators and Dauntlesses there. You can print them on paper, stick em in cereal box cardboard for rigidity and then encapsulate them in resin like I did the first time – just make sure to seal the paper token on both sides before you pour the resin, or the token will soak up the resin and end up looking horrible (as they did with me the first time). Or you can print them on a styrene sheet if you have a good inkjet printer (NEVER PRINT ON STYRENE WITH A LASER PRINTER). This will eliminate the need for a sealant, although I’d still recommend a clear coat or two before pouring the resin, to fix the ink.

    I might do a sheet with German / UK planes too, or with other Pacific plane types if the mood takes me – I’ll post it here when it’s ready.

    Thanks for posting that sheet.  🙂  If you do a German/UK one I would definitely be interested.  I ordered the RN fleet last week.
