Do you paint your wagons red?
So many boardgames, like Memoir '44, have detailed plastic miniatures depicting the infantry, armor, artillery, etc. Some of these units are beautifully detailed, but come in mono-colored plastic...green for American, grey for German, yellow for Japanese, red for Russian, tan for British, etc...some say a tad dull, and some say reminiscent of those gems we played with back 20-30 years ago.
Many gamers like that "old toy" look, and keep the mono-color; while others take delight in painting the mini's uniforms, flesh, guns, and even flocking the bases!
Now I'm not talking about miniatures games, like Flames of War, Axis & Allies Miniatures, etc. I'm talking of board games like Memoir '44, Tide of Iron, Axis & Allies D-Day, etc.
Do you paint your minis?
Be sure to post pictures for all of us to see!
