beefy66 Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 It has been a busy couple of weekends in September 3 shows Driffield, Keithley and Edinburgh(Scale Scotland) so now have some model time to catch up with masts added and rigged. Been getting the ships boats ready and another coat to the base And picked up a few bits at each show Also ordered these last Saturday at Scale Scotland from Name It and they arrived Friday great service in my book and will be ordering more for future builds beefy 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefy66 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 Gents thank you for your comments and support Well nearly at the end of this build I have been working on the Depth charge stowage and racks and adding the flag staffs and topping off the wave crests a few touch ups here and there and last but not least the flags to add. and fitting out And this was my haul from the Glasgow show yesterday Nadder was in the kitswap Bargain even if the previous owner had a little accident with a paint spill the contents are perfect. beefy 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry1954 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Trafalgar is looking really good Beefy, and yes, a big congratulations on your win. I picked up the Starling Nadder last year at Telford. An excellent kit. I also obtained some detailed plans for HMS Spey (1941 fit) from the Canadian Naval and Military Museum. A future project for sure. Terry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
