Hunt Class Kit?
« on: August 09, 2011, 10:55:01 am »
I once sailed on HMS Brocklesby Hunt Class MCMV  and I fancy building her so I have something to sail a Navy days. Is there a kit or a hull I can use?

Thanks Ali.

Models by design have a Hunt class.  HMS Brecon at 1/96.

Thanks for the tips guys. The MBD boat is in a better scale but it sounds like you don't get a lot going by the price. I would prefer a complete kit so I will probably get everything Fleet scale has to offer. I presume I may have trouble getting the Sirmar fittings. Is this right, has anyone spoken to them recently?

I bought fittings from Sirmar in the last couple of weeks.  BZ.  No issues at all excellent customer service.  I dont think you need fear anything from Sirmar right now.

The Fleetscale mouldings and the Sirmar fittings sound like the complete package I'm after.

Thanks again guys. Much appreciated.
