Well I've been spending again, bought some photo-etch pieces for my King George V off white ensign models but got bored of waiting, so I went up the town and found this... Parents thought I was mad spending £40 but what the hell lol So I now have 3...4 if you count bissy, ships to build...guess I'mgoing to be busy bit blurry but you get the idea... Still needs a lot of work, but she'll be done soon enough

Your going for a full fleet I see. perhaps some day you can sail down Torbay and will have a full scale sail past. Or should I say various scales! ;D

yeah it's not too bad, fair bit of detail, good size. It seems to have detail on other parts, instead of the usual doors and things. The hull is solid and has spaces for you to convert it to an RC model. There are a few annoyances such as no real chains for the anchor chains, they're just moulded into the deck, so I filed them down and am replacing them with real chains. It would look good as it is but i'm going to buy the phot-etch detailings from white ensign models, but it is an ok build
