I might have mentioned earlier that I switched over from 1000 to 1/2000 scale for my 'Trashy Fleets' project. The decision was based on space and time constraints, in order to get a few games played over a short period.
By this time I managed to complete my imaginary Zinqaguri navy's two battle squadrons, one for the country's east and one for the west coast. They have different paint jobs because why not?
Also each squadron has a TBD detachment, but being deployed on separate stations and not very likely to operate together, I only completed one base of TBDs in total.
1st (West coast) Division from left to right: CC Putnok, an armoured cruiser based on the Russian Vladimir Monomah, but with a black and tan paintjob; the battleship Lakardo, e.g. the French pre-dreadnought Charles Martel; CA Stimba, an Orlando-class armoured cruiser (with main armament more akin to the Spanish copies of the same class, the Infanta Maria Teresas).
2nd (East coast) Division: all Austro-Hungarian ships - first, CC Imbel Sib, a Zenta-class protected cruiser; the battleship Otped am Hasalq, a Habsburg-class pre-dreadnought; CA Glomeini, e.g. the armored cuirser Sankt Georg. They all sport the pre-war green livery of the A-H Navy.
I have completed some coastal defence ships, armored cuirsers and monitors for their Nordsburian opponents, and am in the process of renovating some merchantmen and US pre-dreadnoughts. Once all that is done, war shall begin...



Those ships look superb, Andrew!
