I did these a couple of weeks ago while on vacation, but have been busy since we returned and forgot to post. I am preparing for a Convention(Little Wars)this weekend where I will be running a couple of Naval Thunder games and hope to play some pick up games with these. My plan all along has been to use my WotC collection for WWII games in addition to War at Sea. After painting my 1/2400 collection for other periods and seeing other's WWII GHQ collections I have decided that the WoTC models out of the box are just not up to standard in many cases. I have long avoided repainting as the collector in me keeps holding me back. I have finally decided to touch up some of my models based on scenarios. These are definately no materpieces like you will see from many of the other talented painters around here, but I do think the quality at least makes them game worthy for a convention. Most are not complete repaints, but just touched up, adding some detail and shading. I will list by Scenario. Battle of the River Platte:Graf Spee: HMS Exeter, HMS Ajax, HMNZS Achilles: Operation catapult:Strasburg, Dunkirk, Provence and Bretagne: HMS Hood, HMS Valient and HMS Resolution: Empress Augusta Bay:IJN Haguro, IJN Myoko, IJN Sendai, IJN Agano: USS Montpelier, USS Cleveland, USS Columbia, USS Denver: Hope you like them, either way I am satisfied that they are presentable and will represent the WaS models well on the gaming table.

The individualized paint schemes seem to add a little more historical element to the game than just playing with gray ships. Great Job!
