I'm not sure if this is a longshot or not, but could someone post or link to an image or images of 1/3000 gunboats from this era on bases? Even better would be side by side with 1/2400 gunboats. Thanks in advance. |

I've just been looking at the Navwar list to see what there is, but I haven't seen many "in the flesh" yet and will be interested to hear what others say. |

There are some useful pictures on the War Times Journal store pages, if that helps. |

I've seen WTJ's photos but aren't they mostly 3d renderings with nothing specifically in 1/3000? |

I thought some of them were the actual plastic/resin/whatever – but admittedly the scale may be one of the bigger ones so maybe not what you are looking for. I found them helpful in working out what they might be useful for as substitutes. All I have from Navwar are the US Helena (still working on
a mast arrangement for that – looks rather bare without) and the Russian Khrabry/Abrek, and at least one of the Chinese fleet packs but no pics sorry. |

link f/b link-- 1/3000 scale French colonial gunboats c. 1905. Scratchbuilt from plans in Jane's; compatible with WTJ capital ships in that scale. |
