Warlord Games are doing well out of me right now. I've gone all Naval during lockdown! Infact I have been uncharacteristically productive & intend to be more so. Black Seas is basically Napoleonic sailing ships blowing each other to splinters & Victory at Sea is a similar story set in WW2. The former range is well rounded out the latter not so much yet, I assume the 'Vid is holding them back.

| I started "Victory at Sea" with the Pacific kit for which I have painted all their current releases. I'll post some more pictures when I take them. The above shot is from a solo game, which I lost... IJN Mogami detonates under USN fire going down with all hands. IJN Kongo hides behind the smoke before legging it. Lots of fun & shouting at myself! |

| Chez moi in the recent snows - Winter wonderland! |

| I'm think about naval games on my pond when the ice melts :) |

| Wintery Wessex - bloody marvelous! |
I am beyond pleased with my first frigate! I don't paint much anymore. This one was done with purely the Contrast range from GW. The rigging is on next, then flags then the ratlines. I am fairly daunted by this yet encouraged by the results of so many others. Special mention must be made of JJ of JJ Wargames for showing the way with this mini project - cheers chum!
I am going for a Danish fleet as I'm half Danish & no other bugger will do it!
Fellow Marauders seem inspired so we may see some high seas action this year, who knows?
Every man will do his duty!
In less heretical news we have made further additions to the 10mm Nappies, yet more Russians have landed at home & more yet French & Austrians have arrived with Barry for painting. Once we are permitted to gather at Marauder HQ we can play again - Huzzah & Hurrah!
Stay safe & sound, best wishes to all,
Jeremy
