Ok, definitely never playing AL. *mutters about heresy and how lolibattlebotes make no sense*whelp, AL has another member of the Big Seven now.
Loligato!
There's already one with Nagamon and loligato together that is just epic. Usual places should have it.

in full agreement. QE and Warspite as loliBBs makes no sense in several ways. That being said, the AL BBs that aren't lolified are really nice, like Hood, DoY, PoW and the two RN battlecruisers or the USN girls. I really like AL Hood's look.

Yep...my first-ever kit was their 1/570-scale Titanic.
Ooh, good site. I've built Aoshima (the old Fuso and Soryu kits) and Fujimi (Oyodo) as well. Love Tamiya's paints, though...it's got to where I won't use anything else if Tamiya makes a color for it. I've used ModelMaster once, as I needed one of their colors for the flight deck of my Shinano kit. Won't use Testor's paints anymore, though...not after I dropped that full bottle of gloss black on the brand-new off-white dining room carpet. Boy, was that an explosion...

Yeah I only use Testors because I still have the first paint I got. But I detest Enamel. Too thick and shows. Every. Stroke. I love Tamiya's bottles because I can flip it over and back, open it up, and use the paint off the cap. Much cleaner.Yep...my first-ever kit was their 1/570-scale Titanic.

Looking at the original picture:Yeah, she's missing a foot sticking out below her knee to let you know, 'hey, I have a leg, it's just behind me'.
It looks like the foot is there -- in fact, I think her foot is the only thing below the knee that you can actually. However, you have to look really closely because her shoes are the same color as her stockings, so a lot of it kind of blends together.

Always liked Games Workshop stuff, because it's pretty durable and the paint is good, but it's a bit pricey, hence my current lack of modeling.

For what it's worth, Citadel paints (GW brand) is acrylic based, as are Tamiya and Vallejo. Vallejo is very nice for military type models and Tamiya is good for everything else.
My opinion mind you.

Yeah. You overpay like hell, but they are nice to put together. Revell could take a lesson from them.

For what it's worth, the gameplay of AL is more accessible than KC or WSG(not having RNG everywhere is good for a change.)Never understood the obsession with how the botes look. Then again, in the hundred LSCs I did in AL I only got one lolibote.

I actually don't play KanColle or WSG either. I just like the fanworks. WoWS and From The Depths fulfil my naval combat needs.

If you are ever in Memphis drop by Mid South Hobbies. They carry a pretty good selection of paints from Tamiya and Vallejo, a bit light on tools though, but they also carry a lot of old military books as well...
I had a friend drag me back into the hobby...I have enough minis and paints to keep me busy for the next year...or three...
I kinda miss some of the old Revell models...particularly the Robotech line (which HG licensed the name for their...series...)

Hmm, this got me to thinking about Musashi and Jersey's little romp. Considering both other shipgirls who are pregnant did so basically on their first try right? Could we be in store for 18" superheavy, radar guided, computer controlled fun times? With good torp protection, STS structure Class A and B armor and a couple of Fletchers worth of AA?

Who told you that torp protection worked? Because as far as the subs are concerned there are two types of vessels, other subs and targets.

So, a WWII era version of the Tillman IV-1/2? Fortunately for the Abyssals, they are unlikely to be around by the time that/those little horror(s) is/are combat ready.

Was browsing around, and found what is quite possibly the best murderball pic that I've ever seen.
AL Charles Ausburne:
for the historical minded readers, there's also the "Little Beavers" here リトル・ビーバーズ！
Aulick, Charles Ausburne, Foote, Spence and Thatcher.
To the other discussion, I spent ~15 years playing Warhammer, and got pretty decent at painting the figs. GW paints are a rip off, Vellejo was such a wonderful thing to discover.

Same here...I'm registered to play WoWs, but I've gotten tired of being cannon fodder no matter how much I update the ship I'm using.
Awesome! Though I avoid Memphis like the plague...
That's just as you say...one of the best murderball pics I've ever seen. I made DesRon 23 male in my fanfic, and they're even wilder than if they were girls.
