Greetings fellow naval gamers! It is with great excitement that I present the winners of the 2016 Man Battlestations Painting Contest.

The Commander’s Choice Award

Last, but certainly not least, is the Commander’s Choice Award. The winner of this award will receive a $20 gift card to the War Store. This award gives me the chance to recognize an outstanding entry that has not been otherwise selected for one of the other awards. This was a really tough choice to make given the caliber of this year’s entries! But in the end, there can be only one.

Commander’s Choice Award Winner: Grgbobe’s IJN Hiryu and Air Wing
