Title: Uncharted seas
Post by: hetairoi on 18 November 2013, 09:27:59 PM
I´ve finally decided to paint my Ralgard fleet (now that Spartan Games has discontinued Uncharted Seas range...) Here is what I have for now:

Cruiser

I still have to try the rules, but the models are awesome. Hope you like them.

Cheers!

On another topic, I'm planning to base my WWII tanks on clear acrylics bases.
I didn't based them so far for one reason : I found they look better on the terrain without.
BUT you have to touch them with the "greasy" fingers and infantry look a bit tall on their bases when put aside a tank. And basing could forbid the players to put their tanks too close from each other.
Anyone has based tanks this way ?

Thanks for your kind coments!

Barbarian, I won´t do that... Ships are placed over a plain surface (sea table), but wwII landscape is not. It also depends on the scale: I won´t use a base on a 28mm tank, but if you want to, just use the same base decoration as your infantry.

The pictures are great!

Even if they weren't, the quality of the painting would more than make up for it.

Superb stuff, as always.

Lovely ships. Great paint job Hetairoi ! I don't like Spartan' s rules (Unc...Seas and Firestorm Armada) but their models are really nice. I bought and painted small fleet to restart play Man ò War.
