We have Hyuga's sistership Ise from WotC in the rebuilt form as a hybrid battleship-carrier. So we did Hyuga as the early war "full-on" battleship. Ise and Hyuga were only minor upgrades from the earlier Fuso class. So they are visually very similar. Hyuga is by 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 mnnorthstars, generalrubenski, kaiserinaliz, Bald Eagle, RH, and itlesserknown. 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:
"If I win the Hyuga, I will yell hallelujah!" before Monday, September 4th, 2023, 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, September 5th, 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.
