I went down to Rhode Island yesterday to pick up my latest Kickstarter castings so stopped by Matt's for a game. We bought some Aeronef back in 2019 and finally got to use it. The rules are something I've been working on for a bit: Ironclad/Aquanef/Aeronef combined armed rules, inspired by Starmada.

I'm also messing around with a CAV Kahn model, trying to find a color scheme I like.

I didn't get much time to paint this past week so all I got done were the funnels and the white for the colors. I'm hoping to get to the red on them this weekend so I can start in on the last few turrets for the Epic tournament in Scotland next month.

I finished up the gun barrels and windows this week. Just the funnel, colors and touch ups left to go.

I've been slogging through the decking, nearly done with this batch just two more ships to go.

Work continues on the Aeronef. The decks got their base coat and wash, and I managed to paint the highlights on five of them.

I also took one to completion, it got its funnel, turrets, windows and colors done up. Like I said before, I'm not looking to go overboard with these. Just a serviceable, table-top paint job.

I picked up some Austro-Hungarian Aeronef cheap at the start of the year on eBay. My buddy Matt and I intend on playing some games with them. He has, in fact, procured the age old enemies of the Austro-Hungarians, the Japanese. We're likely going to bash a few rule sets together into something that's quick and fun.

I've got a few more things left to build (battleships, fixed wings and a carrier) but this is the lion's share of them. Just a simple base, wash and drybrush. I've got a few details left to do but I don't think I'm going to go full orange Eldar on these.
