beefy66 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Well this is my rendition of KGV depicting the ship in British Pacific Fleet pattern 1945 I started on this a long time ago as my start to 1/350 scale PE but soon found that I need more practice with smaller kits so it has been on the shelf for a while. I have another kit in the stash which I will attempt to build another in the class from in the future after I have a bit more practice so this time on my hands should help with that.

Terry1954 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Excellent build Beefy! I've had one of these in the stash for a few years and always been a bit scared to tackle it because of the size and complexity. One day maybe......

Rob 1 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Superb work - always good to see this legendary class of British battleships, and this doesn't disappoint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellE Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Stunning work Keith! 😃 5 years in the making and she's a beauty! Well, I know I'm biased given she's my favorite ship/class but your rendition is something you can really be proud of! I think our 2 kings would look great alongside each other as well as sharing a similar build length! Thanks for sharing mate! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussellE Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 They were indeed a legendary class of ship! Also quite deceiving when one considers building a model of them: at first they seem quite simplistic; but as you drill down into the build you realize just how detailed they were. Again, great work Keith 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
