If it goes on or under the wet stuff and doesn't fly, it's in here.

Airfix 1/600 HMS Hood

Post by Justin1980 »

My second ship build. More enjoyable than the Ark. Only took about 1 month to build and I want to build another in the future with some photoetch.

Enjoy

Have just realised a couple of the davits for the boats have been broken, the model gremlins have obviously been about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reapair planned!

Adding photoetch would be like night and day with this model. Looks like one of the life boats is trying to make a run for it in that last photo. :ha:
