Ironclads Wrapped Up

USS Powhatan, HMS Monarch, HMS Agincourt

The three Minotaurs

HMS Captain and HMS Monarch

USS Powhatan Cut and Shut Conversion

I finished off the last of the 1/2400th scale ironclads today, with the bases painted and two coats of varnish applied to seal them, before adding the base labels. I have now completed the 1870's Royal Navy ironclad fleet, give or take a few coastal monitors and turret ships, but will no doubt add some more French and American warships at some point in the future. I also have some later stuff for the 1880's and 1890's that would be an excellent extension to the Broadside and Ram ironclad naval project, but that will have to wait as I'm now off to do something less fiddly for a change!
