HMS Hood Boot Topping


Grizly

Recommended Posts

I recently purchased Trumpeter's 1/200 model of HMS Hood and am looking forward to acquiring the Pontos Detail Up set for the kit. In the meantime I'm gathering reference material in preparation for my build. For my Bismarck (below & not quite complete), I found specific data on the positioning and width of the boot topping. Would anyone have similar information relevant to Hood's boot topping???

During HMS Hood's career, her displacement increased markedly and the boot topping was painted higher up her hull as time went on. Here is some information from the HMS Hood Association website:
