Hi all, Finished these a while ago but only getting round to show them off now. Pictures can be found here: link All ships are from the Davco modern 1/3000 range which can be found here: navymodelsandbooks.co.uk The oil rigs are 1/6000 from Shapeways (3D printed): link I have recently just purchased a small selection of Davco 1/3000 civilian ships to add some interesting scenario ideas, objectives or just as some interest to a flat blue table!
Thanks Daniel |

Looking very nice. Mine are mostly NavWar but basing is very similar… link Your lines look a lot straighter / cleaner than mine :) Chalfant |

Yours are very nice as well, loads of them! I did scrap the free-hand paint job and go for air brush masking tape to get straight lines on the carriers (also I couldn't be bothered with all of the markings like you've done). |

Thanks. The masking tape method of yours definitely worked. I have not been gaming Shipwreck for a while, but I found it to be much easier to pick up for off an on gaming than Harpoon. Now go out there and rule the seas! Chalfant |

Very nice. I do really like the sea effect as well. |

Thanks Boggler, Really simple effect with polyfilla, it came out really well. I had practice on my WW2 ships so they don't look as good unfortunately. Daniel |
