Well laid out, Vanvlak. You got any more pictures of your stuff?

Just more pics of the Dock - I've only 3 models painted so far, 2 are standard builds, and one a scratch - sigh - I never learn... 'll post a pic or two more of the dock later.

Thank you 'V' Still looks good and I still LOVE the weathering, I'm highly tempted to try your 10 point scheme afterall 
So, what is the shiny globe in the loading bay? (I take it it's a ball bearing but what I really want to know is what is it's gaming purpose?)

Hi all,
new not-quite-an-Aeronef - this time it's a balloon. I was thinking of some different devices for defence, and remembered the barrage balloon idea. Due to the Nefs' slow speed (compared to aeroplanes) and heavy artillery, the balloons wouldn't be too much of a threat. So I came up with a barrage balloon complete with a lightweight recoilless cannon. This here beastie would be tethered, and is seen here in peacetime colours, which would be replaced by a light grey or sky-blue scheme in war. And now, 50% of my Nef models are conversions...great...
