This month's giveaway is the light cruiser HMS Effingham. This is the first miniature I have painted from Deck F. References seem to agree she was painted all over in medium grey during the Norway Campaign when she sank. One reference shows her with a false bow wave and markings on her stack. I went with that for visual interest. (Note that most of the white dots showing in the photos are specks of light reflecting off the paint.) HMS Effingham miniature is by C.O.B Constructs and Miniatures (squint181) 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 admiralackbar, hmsartemis, boomerbill, vegetius, firehouse, and curtm1911. 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 give a damn about HMS Effingham." before Monday, June 6th, 2022, 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 7th, 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.
