After a good long wait, I've returned to painting my ironclad model backlog. First up was an easy to paint, already assembled model of the Yazoo Monster. A classic 'what if' model of a ship that was burned on the stocks before progressing past building the hull.

Much like CSS Mississippi, the Yazoo Monster makes for great fodder for those running hypothetical ACW naval campaigns in which the Confederacy has a more effective ship building program.

Seriously?

It's as if I cannot post to TMP with "The Bug" (tm) taking a hefty bite of every post!

Hope y'all enjoy the side dish of Team Yankee stats with my post!

MHoxie23 Dec 2015 3:12 a.m. PST

Like 'em. Low and deadly, like iron alligators.

Mako1123 Dec 2015 8:51 a.m. PST

And, the bug ate more than half of my postings, including all the background info on how I derived the stats for TY, from Challenger 2000.

The ironclads do look nice though.

The G Dog Fezian23 Dec 2015 9:02 a.m. PST

LOL! You obviously put a lot of work into compiling the data. It's a shame the platform is so buggy.

svsavory23 Dec 2015 11:22 a.m. PST

Good looking monster, G Dog! What a beast!

Maybe you can mount a T-80 turret on the ironclad. That'd be a surprise for the Yanks.

Dave Crowell23 Dec 2015 3:46 p.m. PST

Very nice looking beast indeed.

Hussar12304 Jan 2016 9:19 a.m. PST

Bought one myself after seeing yours. Thanks.

The G Dog Fezian04 Jan 2016 6:06 p.m. PST

Hope you enjoy it John!

Hussar12304 Jan 2016 11:26 p.m. PST

I will thanks for the model.
