| The Tumbling Dice Alma model |
I have a couple of Tumbling Dice Alma class ironclad models left over from my French fleet and don't fancy painting them up as additional French reinforcements. Instead, I wondered about doing a simple conversions into Pervenetz class broadside ironclads for the Russian Baltic fleet. There were three in the class - Kreml, Pervenets and Ne Tron Menia - all roughly the same size and configuration as the Alma class, albeit without barbettes and with a bit more tumblehome, amongst other differences (the TD models don't actually have barbettes anyway). I think that a change of funnel, some green stuff for a ram bow (?), re-located gaff spars and a new coat of paint, would probably do the job. I don't think I can find the time to do this now but it's a good mini-project for a rainy weekend!
