beefy66 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Nearly 2 years on and off with this it is the most modern ship I have built and boy it was a challenge with all the extra PE Peter Hall and his mad PE frets tested my patience a few times with this but quite pleased it has come out OK Couple of things I think I could do better but always learning to try and make the next one a more improved build with all the help and support you get from this site and the great modellers who are willing to give advice and share tips.

Silenoz Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 It was to follow the build, and maybe it took 2 years, but you have a very nice result too... 1

Kev next to get completed( famous last words) should be KGV and then Lord Nelson builds this should clear all the dockyard for a bigger project that will probably take just as long as my KGV build beefy

I want to have ago at someting Soviet Rob Cheers Rob appreciate it There are plenty of Russian/Soviet and PLAN (Chinese) ships out there from Trumpeter and I think Hobby Boss also do some and then there are also some resin kits like the newer corvette that @Silenoz is currently building. Quite a bit more PE on these modern ships compared to WW2 destroyers especially those radar beefy
Courageous Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Excellent job there Beefy. IIRC, I think this has been your best sea base so far. Stuart 1 1
KAYELL Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Yep Cracking build...one of your best! The add ons have certainly been worth the micro work and head scratching Actually the photos do not do it justice as it looks even better in the flesh Cheers Keith 1
Alan P Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Excellent modelling all round. The ship, the colours (they look spot on) and the seascape all combine beautifully. Great work! 1
Terry1954 Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Great result there Beefy. You have really captured the look of the class, in detail and colour tones, and I agree with Stuart, that sea base looks very convincing. Lovely job. Terry 1
