I ended up with the rest...

I have enough WarShips to paint for months on end. Honestly, I don't have enough Simple Green for it. Your package will require a trip to Home Depot!

No worries.

I did a complete inventory today and compared them to the IWM site. I have a few bits to replicate, but nothing big. Just gotta put together a few jump sail pieces and order a whole slew of longer stems. The original mini stems are comically short to be of any real use. I like to mix up sizes, so a combination of medium and long stems works really well to help stagger the different classes.

I'm blown away by some of the older sculpt sizes.

There have been some delays. We're not there yet. Somebody, I'm not gonna name names or point fingers, didn't clean his super fine brushes after their last use...

Sorry. They work better than my toothbrush.

So after 48 hours in the drink most of the minis have been stripped clean, and I managed to fabricate some missing pieces. I'll start posting pics in the next day or so of the whole line up. I need to grab some new Reaper grays...

Is that why you were also in the drink for 48 hours?

Nope, that had everything to do with a Ren Faire.  ;)

Before things changed, I managed to clean and prime three ships, and clean and assemble about six more. I need to pick up some new stems from IWM. I like using varying heights for different ships so there's some variety. Next week I should have some evening time to start getting a few more assembled, primed and ready for painting.

I gotta order from FPG pretty soon, and pick up another set of small brushes. I really wish IWM had a bits bin for Aerospace...  :'(
