Outpost Ships Painted

First batches of OWS 1/3600 reinforcements now painted.
Quinquereme
Hexereme
Quinquereme with courvus
One of each
These models are not as detailed as the trieres but more than detailed enough for this scale.

The quinquereme could be used as a trieres for those wanting to use something more manageable in the fingers.. By removing one or both towers one could also produce different polyremes e.g. no towers = 6 , 1 tower = 7,  2 towers = 8. Maybe.

OUTPOST SHIP MODELS

Expanding the tiny fleet,I bought more of Outpost Wargming Services 1/3600 models.

I undercoated them with grey and here are some views which are rather clearer than those on OWS webpage. The cutting mat grid is 10mm.
