Thanks for the kind words--much appreciated!
The decking is painted with Polly Scale "earth", I think--unfortunately I ran out and no store around here carries it, so I'm having to approximate the color with something from the Citadel line. I put a Citadel Devlan Mud wash over it (just one coat). It may just look plastic due to the lighting.
FSA ships are a little different from the other ships in Dystopian Wars in that they don't have much "freeboard" to paint. You could just about paint murals on the hulls of the Britannian and Japanese ships. FSA ships have a very low profile.
Will get some more pics up this weekend--I have a squadron of destroyers, a Valley-class airship, and a squadron of bombers finished as well. Everything else is either half-done, primered only, or completely unpainted.
