academy's 1/350 HMS warspite

Hmmmm;

     Looks like you got a darned good drawing Board there mate; Couldn't see where it was damaged when you got it finished, Good Job.

     Lived on a Gearing Fram Destroyer back about 63 years ago. We, the Engineering and Damage Control personnel were housed aft. Over the Screws  Eh Wot?

      I practice with Metal Earth Models to perfect my P.E. Work to a better standard .Now I can do a twin forty Mount in P.E. in 1/350 with no problems.

What colors did ou use for the hull?

Wow, your build is turning out really nicely.  The Warspite and her sisters were such nice looking vessels.

TB , they should have made the ship designer sleep there for a few nights .

well i'm finished , as far as I'm going to go anyway , didn't do much rigging , been a bit distracted , going down to adelaide for a while to see my sister and some mates I haven't seen in over 40 years . about 3,500 k's round trip .

Super nice ship steve! You do some great work. Nice job on that deck btw as well. Looks like you got any gaps sorted and looking tight

Outstanding work as usual!

Not enough room--so the men were fit around "the weapon" rather than the weapon being fit to the men.  Basically the same sort of thing that happens in submarine design.

Steve 5,

Great finish on your build and commissioning.

could you PM me that site please mark

Why not post it here?  Id be interested too.  I dont think there are any rules forbidding it.

PS - just tried to PM - its still busted

Beautifully done and one of my top 10 favorite ships (and I have a lot).

Love the PE work, I admire anyone with the patience to work that evil metal with your level of detail and skill, great job.
