orionv Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hello guys This is my last built. Somewhere in the Mediterranean during the years 36/38, The HMS Repulse slices through the water of a calm sea. Soon the world will sink into a murderous insanity that will end in 1945 ... The kit is the old Airfix Repulse with WEM pe and personnal conversion to represent the ship during the 0936/38 period... Next built ,Hms Argonaut ,Dido class cruiser... :wink: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike DeTorrice Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 A superb job on this magnificent battlecruiser ! The Repulse was a beautiful ship and you have well captured in this diorama the power and sleekness of her at sea. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Rogers Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I'm a big fan of your 1/600 Airfix builds over on the ATF Remy, so far I've just got the Ark Royal, Iron Duke and Warspite to build. Your Repulse is fantastic Remy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orionv Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hello Doug Thank you for your comments is always a pleasure. I made these three models. Maybe you have seen them on ATF ? Warspite is a good kit and you can get a very nice modelle with a little work. The Ark Royal and the Duke are a little more basic and require more focus. Do not hesitate to use the corresponding WEM pe sets. If you have any questions about these three bluits ,do no hesitate, I'll try to answer. Bests wishes Rémy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
