Gidday All, well I've started. I guess we of the Antipodean Colonies have a head start over those of you in the Mother Country in that the sun gets to us first.
Anyway, as the title suggests I'm planning on building the County class destroyer HMS Glamorgan for this group build and will be converting an Airfix HMS Devonshire model from the Airfix Falklands set to do so. This era of warship is not my forte so please don't expect too much but I'll try to do the best I can.
Here's the traditional initial photo of box art and kit parts.
And I've made a very modest start. I've glued the hull halves together plus reinforced the join and drilled holes for screwing the model to a building block later.
Included in the photo is my current build of the WW2 destroyer HMS Onslow. I included her here to show just how much bigger these County class destroyers really were.
Well, that's as far as I've gone, a very modest start. Once Onslow is done (and soon I hope) I'll be able to devote all my modelling attention to Glamorgan. Hopefully I'll have more soon. Thank you for your interest. Stay safe, and regards to all, Jeff.
