Frank,
on reflection your model of RODNEY could be anywhere between 1929 and 1937. The clue is in the two eight-barrel Pom poms and their sponsons either side (and slightly forward of) the funnel.
Another clue is the "alcove" on the starboard side of the main superstructure, an unexplained feature of RODNEY only.
Great workmanship and and a credit to you for deciding to build what was generally known throughout the RN as "RODNOL", a derogatory term for a battleship that, after the Washington Treaty truncated her length, resembled the silhouette of RN Oilers with their names ending in "ol".
Somebody has got to love the NELSON twins, and thankfully there's at least two of us about.
My RODNEY is depicted in her October 1942 livery, that being the month and year of my birth and five months after the BISMARCK action.
With your permission, and if you want, I could attach an image of her on this thread.
Kind regards,
Sandy.
