The French Fleet Arrives

 

It's back to work today where I located the package from Navwar containing my nascent French WW2 fleet for Victory at Sea. I'm now waiting for some mdf bases to arrive from ERM so that I can crack on with basing them up. I'm not sure if I'll paint the ships then bases them or vice versa but, for the moment at least, I'm sorting out which ships to do first. I have some 30mm x 80mm mdf bases for the heavy cruisers so can start on them straight away but the rest will have to wait a couple of days. I'm not going to hang about and hope to get a decent sized fleet completed by the end of the month.
