John Day Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Very nice indeed. I like the blade droop on the Merlins !!! Really gives you a good idea of how big the Type 45s are when you see it alongside Ocean. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martian Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Looks fantastic! It also goes to show what large ships the type 45s are. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray S Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hello! I echo everything that has been said so far - wonderful! I love the sea-scape too, very realistic indeed. I think it is amazing that a destroyer these days is bigger fore-aft than a WW1 Battleship like Dreadnought. And when you think how small the WW1 destroyers were... All the best, Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forlornhope Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Nice finish on them both and very well presented. The size of the destroyer is a bit of an eye opener compared to Oceanas others have mentioned well done mate Cheers Callum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Hewitt Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Just to show how big Destroyers have grown That's IJN Mikasa from 1905 and HMS Manchester from 2010 Edited May 14, 2013 by Chris Hewitt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Surveyor Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Lovely modelling, and an interesting comparison, hadn't really considered the relative sizes. I hope to get on board the Mikasa this year for a long overdue visit, will be interesting to see how big it 'feels' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
