Jasmund 1864

Prussians (left) Danes (right)

I have about three weeks left before we head off for France, so thought I'd aim to get the Prussian and Danish ships painted for the Battle of Jasmund / Rugen in March 1864. 


I have already based and base coated the relevant proxy Tumbling Dice models for this, along with a whole load more, but haven't actually painted them, so I thought it would be a great idea to finally get them tucked away. I've been meaning to wargame this little naval skirmish from the Second Schleswig War for many years and have now got some experience painting 1/2400th scale models, so why not give it a go, especially as there are only a handful of ships and many of them are just tiddly gunboats!

  1. Excellent Jim. Have you told us before which models you are using for each one? Always helpful when someone else does the work!

  2. I will do a list of the relevant codes for you. Most are close enough visually to look the part.
