Some OpFor for my Spaniards. These are Navwar with added masts and flags (although Texas and Maine came with stump masts and I have left them in place). The flags, as you will see, are a pink and blue cheat, but at normal distance I think they look plausible. (I don't suppose they'll survive real life contact with the enemy (player) for long anyway!)

Brooklyn has been delayed in the dockyard fitting masts. Maine has not been sunk, but has survived and been painted grey. (They found some other pretext for the war.) Incidentally, any views on the colour monitors may have been painted? I've seen some models in dark grey/green which looks quite nice, but I've also seen photos of the vessels themselves in what looks like white and yellow so have assumed that any that went to war would have been painted grey too and have done mine accordingly.

Really nice Colkitto – and the "cheaty" flags are really effective.
