War of the Pacific Revisited

The next thing I'm going to tackle, having successfully refurbished the sea bases on my Indonesian Confrontation models, is a similar repainting job on my 1/2400th scale War of the Pacific fleets. I had a lot of fun devising scenarios and playing games with these a few years ago, but they've been gathering dust since. The plan is to give them a refresh by repainting the bases in my default shades, while also adding a few additional models. These include a third model of the Huascar in Peruvian rebel colours, together with HMS Shah and HMS Amethyst, the latter using the Tumbling Dice model of the Chilean corvette O'Higgins. These will allow me to replay the battle of Pacocha in May 1877, which I've been wanting to do for ages.
