From Paul O'G: Russian Cruiser Reinforcements (30 points)

A small Cruiser Squadron to reinforce my growing Russian Dystopian Wars fleet. After a couple of weeks travelling away from the Hobby bench (for the best of reasons!) its was nice to get these finished and meet this week's deadline.

Disclaimer: I have used AI to generate a more contextural background.
The models themselves are unchanged and are my own work.

Like the rest of my fleet these are an Ebay rescue, and as a bonus they came with nicely magnetised turrets. I've painted them up in more grungy wartime colours to contrast with the rest of my Fleet. I used historical paint schemes again, this time from the Russo-Japanese war. I like to think of these ships are the offensive night patrollers - going out ahead of the main force to screen against marauding torpedo boats

Yes, they're 'nice" I guess but...

The right backdrop makes quite the difference!

3 x Cruisers at 10 points each, for a total of 30. Thank you!

=======================

Sylvain: Paul, you will have to show me how to AI my pictures, it's astonishing what you can do. But the paint job is even more amazing: with a few well applied touches of bronze, your ships seem to be brimming with power. I can foresee fun games for you. Bravo!

  2. Great work Paul - rest assured they are cool even without the AI stuff faffing around.

    There is something remarkable about the character of the ship designs from this setting. Neat project, and I love the eBay rescue angle.
