VAS/OOB AND AOD FLEETS

[PFE100]

They look great to me. The only suggestion I would make for a bit cleaner look is to make labels on your PC and glue them on to the stands instead of writing the names on. All personal prefernce really.

I take it those are Panzeschiffe? I use them for WWI as well and am planning to use my large WotC War at Sea models for WWII.

Here is a sample of the lables I created on a word doc.

Thanks for sharing!

Looks good to me Personally, I prefer not to have bases so dominated by names but each to their own.

Funny I went back and forth on that issue. My 1/6000 have the names on the bottom. I do not plan to mount my WaS units to preserve the collectible nature of them.

With the 1/2400s I have just seen so many with names I just decided to copy that. It is all a matter of personal preference.

Yes I to am a label man it helps other players to find the ships during play.

Thanks for the comments guys

The name on the bases is one area I will need to go back over. I did labels to some of the WW1 stuff, but didnt like the look it,I think they were too small. I like the look of the labels that "afilter" has done, and will use the style. When i do redo them.

afilter: yes all my ships are Panzeschiffe.

OK guys a quick update to let you know that another update has gone up on my website

I hoping to put a battle report up next some time, if all goes well.

rcbecker- thanks for the comments, yours are to bad either :wink: . You were the one of the reason I looked at WotC War at Sea to use for VAS/OOB. Sorry I feel in love with Panzeschiffe .
