Really great work, Alan, your tiny Scimitars have nicely filled that landing craft, which in itself is an excellent small scale ship build.
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

I’m about done on the Landing Craft so it’s time to plod on with the main build.
My work bench is starting to look like Portsmouth Naval Dockyard.

Re: Airfix 1/600 HMS Fearless
Those Scimitars turned out really well. Your added details like that and the Sea King are making this a standout model.

Re: Airfix 1/600 HMS Fearless
An excellent pair of landing craft, Alan and the one pence coin tells me all I need to know about their size, that is a great piece of modelling!

Those are cool Alan, they really add to the look of the landing craft.

You don't really need them because your Scimitars look good as they are, but if you get the itch to upgrade sometime, Shapeways has some 3D printed 1/600 FV107 Scimitars that look very nice.

They do look great but a tad expensive for my penny pinching budget

Beautifull Fearless. Nice work designing the Seaking and the Scimitars. Top drawer!
