Painting my 2nd fleet took a lot less time than expected. Partially that was by design, as I wanted a simple table-ready paintsceme. But it was still faster than expected, aided by an injury keeping me from training.

Now the fleet only lacks its flagship, but the Helian League Leviathan Battleship is currently is out of stock. I plan to build it as an Emperor class, maybe convert it a little bit, and paint it in a similar style to the rest of the fleet.

Which means I now have just one fleet of 4 cruisers and 11 escorts left. Those will be Chaos, probably painted as Ashen Claws. Plus the aformentioned battleship for this fleet, but we will see when Vanguard has that in stock again.

Hey, so I finished my first one and a half fleets yesterday and wanted to show them of. 1250 points of Bakka and three extra ships which could both fit in this fleet (grey hulls) or the next imperial fleet (red bows). I needed a break from painting unending hordes of guardsmen, where I do not see much progress, because I find at most a few hours per week for hobbying.

So the ships needed to be relatively quick and dirty.

Still I am quite happy how they turned out.

The two Havoc class frigates (that is what they are supposed to be) have green instead of blue bows to show of their status as auxilliary vessels, btw.

Overall, I am aiming for three fleets of 1250 points each. Next one will be Gothic (3 cruisers and 9 escorts, still waiting for their battleship-flagship) and then, hopefully before 2030, Chaos (4 cruisers, 11 escorts).
