Rick I don't understand the point you are trying to make. :confused: I have been in the Canadian Navy for almost 30 years and the naming convention is HMCS SHIPNAME or HMC Ship SHIPNAME. the shipname should be all caps.

Here are some pix of the HMCS Ottawa II build I am working on. I started with the HMS Glowworm kit from GreMir. The ships are almost identical so there are not many changes to make. Hull number, Maple Leaf on funnel and hedgehog projector. I am presently trying to locate info on the type...

WOAAAAAH!! thats a small model - looks fantastic. I agree with your assumptions however, I'd like to be sure. The research I have done so far indicates she had a 'large' hedgehog (Mk 15?). Also that some G and H class destroyers had the B mount replaced with a hedgehog projector. But...

Very NICE build - you might find answers to your rigging question here The Dreadnought Project http://www.dreadnoughtproject.org/ Cheers

No - it/she was a G - Class RN Destroyer gifted to the RCN

Thanks StevO- but, no OTTAWA was a Destroyer. That looks like the Mk 10 launcher. I am in lovely Halifax regularly and often vist SACKVILLE and have even been invited to the St. Barbara's Day celebration onboard. Barry These others are of the Mk 15 And good links ->...

I am building HMS Glowworm as HMCS OTTAWA (the second, pennet H31). I have gotten all the differences but one. Does anyone know what version of hedgehog OTTAWA had and how they/it were placed (location)? Any assistance is appreciated - Cheers

Nice model of the maritime version of the B1-RD. :) The RHIB is very nice too.

Happy birthday - thanks for the party favour :)

Build delay The build has been delayed while I located a grey marker that more closely matches the grey of the model. The one I am using is too dark, I don't like the way it places emphasis on the joints, it is as bad as white edges. I have located what is hopefully the right colour but is...

Hobby Factory has this model in 1/100 and 1/200 scale. I bought one a while ago - pretty intimidating.

Wonderful - the new chassis has a much cleaner look.

Looks great. A very clean design and build. :)

This is an amazing build. Thanks for sharing it with us. I always seem to take forever to add the last couple of pieces.

Thanks - your Colonial Viper build looks great - and congratulations :)

I think it looks great. I hope to see it as a card model.
