Fellow Naval Wargamers!
The end of 2018 is nigh upon us. So, as we've done in the past, let's see what you painted this year! Post up pics of all your naval wargaming-related (finished) projects that you've knocked out this year. Nothing to win but bragging rights, but it's always good to see what the MBS community has done!

OK, I'll kick this off.
Didn't actually get many naval-related models painted in 2018. This was probably due to Star Wars Legion, a local resurgence of Dystopian Legions and the Dystopian Wars ground game, and just a generally busy year.
Most of what I did get done was for Halo: Fleet Battles, although I did knock out some terrain for Dystopian Wars.
For the UNSC, I finished three Valiant-class super heavy cruisers, six Marathon-class cruisers, twelve Halberd-class destroyers, and three Pelican boarding craft:

Really like the design of the Valiant-class superheavies.

These little Pelicans are awesome too. Wish I had more of them!

For the Covenant, I finished twelve ADP-class escorts and three Type 28 boarding craft:

On the Dystopian Wars front, I finally painted up the island set that Ruckdog sent me a couple years ago:

I included an FSA battleship for scale:

That's it! I have a lot of painting scheduled for 2019, much of which will need to get done pronto--I'm taking my UNSC and Covenant fleets to Adepticon, along with at least one DeepWars faction, so...lots to do.
What did you guys get painted this year?
