Chris, as usual your work is impressive. Regarding the color of your aircraft shelters, I think it comes down to where they are located. There isn't much point in camouflaging an aircraft shelter that is beside a long concrete runway whereas a camo pattern makes makes perfect sense on remote airstrip per your picture.

Thank you CavDog.
I did paint the other one multi camouflage. Have another one to do. Need 60. But that might be excessive.

I got the bunkers from a guy 2-3 years ago. I worked on terrain items the last 2 days. Have not working on painting armor nor planning to keep EE at bay.

What will they be used for? I prefer just a monotone scheme... great work Chris!

Your aircraft shelters would fit right in on Gamecraft's airport battle mats.

Not buying' those as ANY kind of Abrams. Calling "BS" in that.

Thank yuo, hope you like it. Have fun. I do not go out drinking, nor chasing women. My wife would rather I hang out in basement in the bunker or the war room.

Painted the buildings recently. Still need to work on some of them.
