New Tumbling Dice Victorian Naval Ships



A couple of new packs have materialised in the 1/2400th scale Tumbling Dice ASV Victorian naval range, with a definite South American focus. The first is a pack of two Large Gunboats, which I assume are for the Chilean and Peruvian navies of the War of the Pacific, although they could equally well be generic warships to complement the existing Crimean War era gunboats. The second pack is clearly aimed at the aforementioned conflict, with two of the Canonicus class monitors that the Peruvians acquired second hand in 1868. It will be interesting to see if they are modelled with masts as delivered or without as they would have been deployed in the war. I've added both packs to my latest order, so will find out what they are like after I get back from my holidays.
