Project Jutland - Dreadnought Wonderland

The choice was, travel down to "that" London and Salute or stay in God's own and finish some ships. Ships won.

16 of the 50 present complete this weekend so with a November date for our refight at the Royal Armouries things are on track.

Ships are all 1/2400 GHQ.

Lovely work. Brings back happy memories, I used to share a house with a chap who built both the Grand and High Seas fleets using those same GHQ models. Monument to monomania but bloody impressive.

Cheers Carlos, it's something I have always fancied doing. Fortunately I have had someone split the purchase costs, I've just got the painting to do.

They are such exquisite models the GHQ ships. I know my former house mate, cheated a little by using some C-inC models, largely cos GHQ didn't run to the full range 20 years ago and they were significantly cheaper. The C-in-C ships are actually a bit more accurate in terms of proportion as the details on GHQ are way oversize but wow do the details pop with a decent paint job. Of course at gaming distance it's hard to tell 'em apart.

Damn tempting to get back into naval gaming. If GHQ would do all the ABC navies for South America, I bloody well would.

Hi Carlos, check out WTJ, a US company that does a 3d printing thing to make ships. They do a lot of the south American stuff if I remember correctly. The detail on these is really good and generally they are half to 2/3rd the price of GHQ.
