This month's giveaway is the battleship USS Arkansas. This one has been a long time coming considering Arkansas is my Alma Mater. She is painted in her 1944 Ms 32 splinter camo. The decks of all US warships were painted Deck Blue (Navy blue) during the war with a stain used on the wooden decks. I am not a fan of the blue stained wood decks as a modeler because it reduces the contrast, detail, and interest. That was certainly the idea originally, but I am experimenting with ways to show the blue stain as being very faded and worn off. I am not where I want to be yet, but at least the deck stands out. The Shapeway's model is from squint181 (C.O.B. Constructs and Miniatures) and the base is from Reacher.
You can enter if you have not won a miniature in one of my monthly giveaways in the last six months. 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: nagato01, mnnorthstars, Stalker 6, 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:
"Woooooooooo, Pig! Sooie!" before Monday, August 5th, 2019, 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 on Tuesday night, August 6th, 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.
