dfqweofekwpeweiop4 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 If anyone is interested, I can recommend the recently released Shipcraft book on the Nelson + Rodney. If you are modelling either of these, it's well worth getting as an additional source of info. The line drawings and guide to modifications will help me modelling the Tamiya Rodney as she appeared in 1941, when she fought the Bismarck. thanks Mike 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeR Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Some more news from Japan: Pit Road leaflet: HERE. First sign of a 1941/Pearl Harbor configuration USS Tennessee (Trumpeter kit reboxed for Japanese market) and another Japanese auxiliary, the food supply ship Irako. I see that they're also releasing a JMSDF Asagiri class destroyer with a full hull option. Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff_B Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 A WW2 HMS Hermes? That's a bit left field, I never expected to see that ship done in plastic! Mike. Yes they are focusing on the ships that were sunk, as Aoshima have recently done the USS Wasp along with the Japanese Sub that sunk her, so expect Hermes to be sold with the IJN Carrier Air-group that sank her. Not that i'm complaing as it gives a rare RN Carrier and perhaps we may get the County Class cruisers as part of the same theme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfqweofekwpeweiop4 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 HMS Hermes will be most welcome and i'm looking forward to getting my hands on the USS Wasp. The Japanese Army Aircraft Carrier looks interesting too but I can't remember it's name offhand. thanks Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
