Merry Christmas everyone! The Shapeways model this month was chosen by firesdstny last year for getting second place in the FFFL tournament. He has been long suffering in waiting for his prize! As always, I paint multiples so I have one for myself and several for prizes. We also just announced her sister HMS Temeraire in the new deck. Feel free to use the mini for either one. I created the camouflage scheme as a fusion of the official Admiralty schemes created for HMS Anson, Howe, and KGV in 1943. The Shapeways model is by Tiny Thingamjigs (Roe). Note this model is in Frosted Detail plastic instead of the WSF I usually use. So take care in handling as it is a bit brittle. Ship base is by Reacher.
You can enter if you have not won a miniature in one of my monthly giveaways in the last six months or won a previous HMS Lion from me. (That knocks you out fires! ) If you have a mini from me by any other means like a contest prize you are still eligible. According to my list the ineligible contestants are: Capt. Strange, naresar, and Solomiranthius (there are only three names because I skipped a few months.) All others are eligible. If the prize is not claimed within two weeks of the drawing I will roll the die again from the same list of participants.
Just post to this thread:
"HMS Lion roars in like a Lion, and goes out like a Lion." before Monday, December 11th, 2017, 8 PM US Central Time (2:00 am GMT). I will compile the list in order of posting as usual, and then roll for the winner Tuesday night, December 12th, around 9:00 pm US Central Time.
The fine print: As always, entries are limited to members of the Forumini that joined the board as of the time this message was posted. I paint several copies of each miniature and the one you receive may be slightly different from the miniature in the photographs. Weedsrock2, his affiliates, and heirs, take no responsibility for the outcome of any game where this miniature is used.
