I realised today that I’m starting to go off in far too many project directions and in serious danger of mission creep! As a result, I’ve decided to postpone my plan for Bag the Hun over Guadalcanal and the associated 1/3000th scale IJN fleet, to concentrate instead on the 15mm Red Actions! AFSR army, which is a big enough project in its own right, and my on-going 1/2400th scale pre-dreadnought project. 

The latter will now move forward with a French fleet, which is all prepared for painting, or possibly a Royal Navy fleet. I might also have a crack at the Sino Japanese war, which has a lot of ships to assemble but all quite small, so quick to paint using the techniques I have tried out on my South American stuff. 

I feel much better now that I have a limited focus and can look forward to some pre-dreadnought games in the Summer 🌞
