There's a new Osprey out later this year by Angus Konstam, focussing on gunboats of the Victorian Royal Navy. It reminded me that I have a number of surplus to requirements 1/2400th scale first and second class gunboat, all based and undercoated in my ironclads project leftovers box. These were originally assembled for the Second Schleswig War Battle of Jasmund project, but that was done using card counters instead.
I've used some for last year's War of the Pacific project, but there are enough remaining to add them to my French and British fleets. It's a good way to recycle an abandoned project and reuse the models, rather than spending money that I haven't got on shiny new lead. They also don't take long to paint so I can get them done on a wet weekend.
