Hi guys

I were just playing around a little in my paintshop program to make some banners for the Rumble in the East Asian Sky 1931-45 campaign. I thought I might as well make some banners for the Falklands War and VVS campaigns.

Feel free to use them in your profiles and on all the sites you want. This way we might get more people to join the campaigns and Aeroscale. Below I have shown the banners with the URL below.

Hope you like them

Hi Jesper

nice banners.

One nit pick: in my opinion the Red Stars campaign is not well represented. (BTW in my book VVS just means Airforce e.g. VVS-KBF is Airforce of the red baltic fleet)

I think it should be from 1917 to 2007 so it is not just a soviet campaign, but soviet-russian. I have to check what you wrote in the description, but I though that was what we had come to in the old thread!? so: Nieuport to Berkut (not only WW2) ... maybe add a modern style banner

Calling the Rumble in the East campaign a "pacific campaign" is maybe also a little too narrow ... But maybe I am just a littlle a..l today...

best wishes

Steffen

Hi Jesper:

Cool banners !

I like the second one of the Pacific WW2 Campaign and the first one of the Falklands War Campaign.
I think that the word Campaign in the Pacific.... banner must be in Capital letter.

Regards.

Thanks for your comments - glad you liked them

On the few comments/corrections, I will go in and correct the banners and then post the new ones in this tread.

@Carl, I could make a banner for your campaign if you like. Maybe with some pictures of aftermarket sets? What text would you like? However, depending on how busy I am at work ETA might a week or two.

I agree. However, I simply copied the name of the campaign. Also, the title needs to be short and not cantain to many abbriviations to look good in the smaller banners. (This is also why I experimented a little with calling "Rumble in the East Asian Sky 1931-45" for "Pacific WWII" to save space)

Good point. I have now tried to incorporate that by putting "1917-2007" in the title and "Soviet/Russian..." in the smaller text.

Modern style banner will follow at some point, but I have a few other special request before that for other campaigns, campaign leaders etc. Apparently there is a market for this kind of stuff.

Thanks for pointing that out. I also forgot that in the smaller titles of some other banners. Here are the new banners.....

Thanks Steffen

Here are a couple of new ones for the VVS campaign. Among others a couple with modern fighters. I have just noted, when uploading the new ones that black text on red background makes the text look "fluffy", but maybe that is only on my screen.
