Title: HMS Cavalier - build threads??
Post by: davejay on August 08, 2013, 06:17:54 pm

Hi peeps, just wandering whether anyone has done a build thread for a Fleetscale 1/72nd HMS Cavalier other than the one already viewed on the Fleetscale's forum......also is there any decent books available about the Cavalier?
All the best, Dave

Hi Dave


There is a book about the Ca class destroyer published through Maritime Books. However it doesn't just concentrate on Cavalier but the entire C Class. It gives a spec history of the type then a service history of each destroyer in this class with a few pictures of each vessel. You can get a copy from Amazon or from navybooks.com.
I'm not aware of a build log of Cavalier but doesn't mean that there isn't one, some of the warship forums might have one.


Regards


Nick

Andy's son made a great job of it and has moved on to a Type 22 in the same scale.
 
Whoops ignore this as it is the same one....
