claudius Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hello guys, I would like to ask all of you if there is any particular WW2 Royal Navy ship you wish to be released in 1/350 scale. For example I never heard about any HMAS (Aussie actually...) Sydney available around in that scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMS Starling, HMS Gloworm davepb, Starling and Gloworm are both available in resin from Atlantic Models, I have both and very nice they are. For myself I would say HMS Renown, HMS Sheffield, any Dido class cruisers and any carrier serving in the British Pacific Fleet. Richard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitestar12chris Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 A T or S Class submarine would go down a treat. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I don't know of any, White Ensign would have been the best hope for one. Maybe Pete Hall at Atlantic Models will do one in the future, I hope so as they are historically important and offer up plenty of options .

davepb Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Well, as they were designed only a few miles from where Peter lives, perhaps he'll consider it when he's finished his present "to-do" list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73north Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 You are welcome , just be aware you need to fit aftermarket 1/350 Quad Pom-Pom as Trumpeter fitted the Model with an 8 barrel version and different boats ( they fitted German type boats to the Kit ) and the full details of the Model are here http://www.hyperscale.com/2013/reviews/maritime/trumpeter05758reviewgp_1.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundloop Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) Skytrex do a River class frigate and a V/W destroyer in 1/350. They are a bit crude but with a bit of work and some WEM PE they can turn out quite well. http://www.skytrex.com/60-meridian-wwii-1350th-ships Edited February 3, 2017 by Groundloop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansReggelsen Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 HMS Manxman for no other reason, that Airfix' 1/600 kit was the first shipkit I ever built. I have recently bought it again, but a larger scale injectionmolded kit would be nice. Cheers Hans J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moaning dolphin Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 My first option would be a Victorious (or Illustrious as they were reasonably similar) and also a CA class destroyer, preferably Cassandra. But really? anything RN would certainly catch my eye and pull at my wallet! Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
