Coastal Convoy Tramp Steamers for E Boat Alley

 

At some point after Easter I'm planning an early war East Coast convoy game using Narrow Seas and 1/600th scale models from the old Skytrex range, now sold by Heroics and Ros. I have almost half a dozen merchant ships built and base coated but wanted a few more to make a decent sized convoy, so have ordered three from Heroics and Ros today. Two of these are the CF909 2500 ton tramp steamer and the other a CF907 3000 ton tramp steamer, as these are both nice models and pretty generic, so suitable for both sides. I'll tart them up with some sturdy wire masts and derricks, add some gribblies to make them a bit different and paint them up in a nice shade of rusty bucket!
