Post by: ngt68 on April 17, 2011, 05:29:36 PM

hi guys, i'm restoring a 'beat up' 1/96th sirmar type 42 destroyer, and trying to soarce some liferaft canisters, the few i do have, are (17mm x 7mm) there seems to be so little so little 1/96th scale fittings around, any pointers welcome! she's also 'motorless', does anyone know what the original motor recomendation was for this size of 'semi-kit' was?

cheers, neil.

Check out the fleetscale website - some 1/96 stuff there - you can always pince stuff from other class of vessels   :-))
