I'm going to have a crack at scratch building two Peruvian ironclads, one the casemate ironclad Victoria and the other the single turret monitor Loa. Neither of these were active in the War of the Pacific but could have been, so are included as extras in the campaign. It shouldn't be a difficult job to build either of them using plastic card and spare bases from Tumbling Dice, so I'll get cracking at the weekend. I'm not sure they'll be of much use to the Peruvian Navy but at least they'll look the part.
Fantastic. I don't suppose there is any chance these could fall into a mold before you get to painting them? I'm always rather envious of your 1/2400th scratchbuilds.
ReplyDeleteIf I knew how to do that I'd be very happy to oblige
ReplyDeletePaul over at Tumbling Dice might pop them in a junk mold if we asked him very nicely?
