The light cruiser Isuzu was refit to be an anti-aircraft cruiser late in the war. Unfortunately, IJN anti-aircraft weapons had not significantly improved during the war so the improvement was small. However, Roe made a nice sculpt of the refit Nagara-class cruiser for us. Miniature sculpt is from Tiny Thingamajigs, and the 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. 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 hmsartemis, locksrule, Terranranger, boomerbill, and brikabraka . 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:
"Sue and I flew through the zoo to view two caribou in lieu of the ewe with the flu. Whew!" before Monday, May 31st, 2021, 8 PM US Central Time. I will compile the list in order of posting as usual, and then roll for the winner on Tuesday night, June 1st, 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.

"Sue and I flew through the zoo to view two caribou in lieu of the ewe with the flu. Whew!"
Mouthful! Thanks for doing this, weeds. What do I do when the local zoological park negligently allows water to freeze on its ramps, causing my friends to break their coccyxes? I sue zoo!
