Title: HMS Jupiter / Charybdis
Post by: deerstalker36 on August 26, 2010, 09:56:58 pm

Hi all,

I have the hull and plans for Sirmar's HMS Charybdis kit and i'm looking to see if anyone has any pics of either the Cherry B or the Jupiter. I served on both ships and would like to build a model of either of them. I have a few photos but any more would be most welcome

regards

Colin

I have a large numbrer of photos I took of Cherry B taken on its last trip. They are all on loan to Fleetscale at present who are using them for reference material for some of the fittings they have in the pipeline. When I get them back, I will see if I can get some ccopies. I also have a made model of Cherry B in 1/96 scale.

  Deerstalker in which configuration do you intend to build your Leander - post or pre modernisation
with/without seawolf  etc etc.

Cheers for that propslip, any will be most welcome,

Pugwash - it will be post modernisation with seawolf, i was the seawolf maintainer on the Jupiter down the gulf in 1990 and want to build it to that configuration
