Suberb! I love the detail. Is that a Fuso class BB silhouette in the Japanese dreadnought counter?

These counters look great!
On a side note, where do you find those beautiful ship / plane images?

He doesn't find them. As an artist he's likely creating them in a drawing app. (which is why they all look consistent)

They look awesome as always!
Great compromise between detail and vividness. Can't wait...playing using those in War in Europe is pure joy for my eyes, I shall be patient!

Yes I am still working on the counters thanks for inquiring. I am in full production mode and will complete them.

I have completed the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force for now. I will begin working on their Armour counters next.

I find images similar to the one you posted as reference. I then create outlines of the image. There are many outlines / paths for all of the parts of the image. Then I proceed to add the colors and shape/dimension to the images. I use Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.

Your in luck my man. I talked to Ray (Unfortunate Son) and after he is done with the vanilla suite he can certainly do your specific mod.
Ray confers with me all the time while he his designing these counters of his. I give input from time to time when he is involved in design decisions.
