Midland1965 Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Here are the finished* photos of my 1/1250 HMS Queen Elizabeth, from the earlier WIP thread. The basis of the ship model is a Mountford resin kit but most of the visible surface and all the details are scratch built. The F35s and helicopters are from SNAFU on Shapeways. The finished model is just under 230mm long and dwarfs almost everything else in my 1/1250 collection. * The aircraft and deck vehicles aren't fixed in position yet - I want to get some more information on likely operating arrangements before I do this. I also need to make the four DS30M Mk.2 30 mm guns for which I need to find some better reference pictures and dimensions so any help or advice on these would be very welcome. My main reference for the deck markings and patches of darker grey and blue-grey was this photo from an article on savetheroyalnavy.org. 40 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutcastJoel Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 That is lovely! I guess it is still quite big even in 1250 scale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancona Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 That is absolutely b****y amazing, some of those details must be microscopic, and you even got the roundels on the F35s ! You must have very steady hands !!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
