    New Release Destroyer V108

    At Easter I saw that Roman had updated the V108, I got some nice card from my local printer (for free, a nice man) and I printed her out at 1:140 or so. I also printd a copy on plain paper for rolling the little bits. The new version of V108 is different to the old 1:250 download in detail...

    Russian Mary Rose

    Thanks Tirta and Steve, I will watch Copitz's build thread with interest. Looks fun but quite dificult to build? I am off to look at some books about the Mary Rose to see if I can undestand the rigging! Now I can build the Mary Rose, HMS Victory (any time i have a year or so spare!) I just...

    Russian Mary Rose

    Surely you mean Charming but Cyrillic? ;P Looks like an interesting model and going together well. Who is the manufacturer, what's the scale and how much detail? I have a very good friend who worked on raising the ship in the 1980s and would consider making him a copy for his desk. Where...

    Hey man, That's fantastic! I couldn'tdo it at 1:200 let alone smaller without a major upgrade to my optics and a cure to "fat fingers"! Keep on steaming. D

    The Missing Links...

    Its the HMS Warrior. If you haven't been, GO! Warrior is fantastic day out, plus the Victory, Plus the Mary Rose plus the Royal Navy Museum! And not forgetting the Dockyard, fantastic architecture and a vast "machine" to supply the navy. Pity about Pompy :twisted: Does anyone produce a...

    Beejay, You might well be right but my polish doesn't go far enough... and the download button does not seem to work for me (Mac problem?). I will keep looking. D P.S. Don't worry about hi-jacking, it's good to talk! I have met some old sailors and ship builders over the years and the one...

    Hms Ajax

    Hey guys this is great. As I understand it the auxiliary cruisers were part built with government money with gun mounts built in. Kind of opposite of the commerce raiders ie not secret! It would be cool to have a pre-war liner in company livery and a war time version in grey! Ajax anyone...

    It would be fun to do ! At the rate I build it might take a year or two! If I finished. Then I could go on to North Cape, or back to the 18th century... On the Graf Spee front check out Wikipedia's entry for the River Plat... Some further help requested. At 1:200 how big a model...

    Hi, Anyone know of a kit of the 1930s HMS AJax, famed for the Battle of the River Plat? Achilies or Exeter would be OK to. I have had a quick look and drawn a blank. D
