Title: 1/72 scale Type 23 HMS Westminster
Post by: nige1958 on June 12, 2012, 08:02:23 pm

This is the second of my builds underway at the moment. If you want to see progress through the build you will find it on the "fleetscale" forum. There is too much to post on here I am afraid. These are how she is today.

I bought the hull and running gear and developed loads of the fittings myself which are now with Justin to put into production for other modellers.

Strill ots to do on her with the forward superstructure block almost finished.

Nige,
I had one of these a good while ago, they are so stable compared to the usual warship model.
