Ode to Torpman's Ships of the Week

Ships of the week part 1

Starting now, Every week I will post a full color pictures to help you paint your ships, (Or for you to enjoy in general) I will post a picture of up to 8 ships from various theators. They are done as best as I can color wise and might be slightly off. It they are I will have that noted in the infor section on the ship. I really hope you guys like them as they are done from hours of research and then they take up to an hour a piece to color. To start I will be covering 6 full color ABDA destroyers from Dec 1941 to the end of ABDA in Feb 1942 that are peiced together from various partial photographs. They are all as close to the real thing as I can do. If you want addition info on where I got the pictures PM me and I will give you the links you need.

Anyway I think I am boring you so lets get to the good stuff.

Here they are. Of note is Cape Bon. I could find no pictures or evidence for that matter of the Italian ships wearing camouflage that said that does not mean they did not. If you have information on possible camo for them please let me know. Anyway enjoy.

Ships of the Week Part 13

Ok yes its another ABDA one. But there is a reason why I am doing so many of these. The pictures and information needed to make this was insanely harder to find than in any other theater. (Especially HMS Encounter) Also this with a 50/50 chance will be my last ABDA one. So anyway...

Enjoy
