I am struggling to keep up a monthly pace of giveaways so I am just going to do this one now because it is ready. For all of you minor nation fans out there (all two of you 
), this time around I have a Romanian "set" consisting of the destroyer NMS Regia Maria and the fighter IAR-80A. (Don't worry, RAEVSKI already has his set!) Regia Maria had a very complicated camouflage scheme so I had to simplify it a little. You can't see it very well, but the stern had a black Spade symbol painted on it as well. The IAR-80A was infamous in the team Neptune project as the much-requested "Axis P-40." It was actually pretty difficult to identify a suitable candidate. I think the IAR-80 was a good choice, but we couldn't bring ourselves to be quite as cheesy as RB was with the P-40. But it fills the niche well enough if you allow Romania in your fleet build. It was certainly a unique looking aircraft. The is the first time I have taken a stab at painting a dot on the spinner. Good enough for this scale I think. The Shapeway's models are by direwolf, and the base and aircraft stands by Reacher. Romanian wing insignia by Dom's decals.
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 Regia Maria and IAR-80 from me. (That knocks you out RAEVSKI!
) 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: naresar, Solomiranthius, and grgbobe. 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:
"I want to make a Romanian connection." before Monday, February 19th, 2018, 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, February 20th, 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.
