Rob Hmm think someone has been at the wine again but ok I can live with that one after all it is in my age group. So after removing all the moulded on details which was not very convincing I started adding it all back on using the PE detail set much respect to @Ex-FAAWAFU and @robgizlu for using and putting me onto these extras Ohh why do I listen to other people. this is going to take a while. Also managed to get the PDF plans from Black Dragon or Profile Morskie need to enlarge the print on these sections Stay Safe beefy Edited July 9, 2021 by beefy66 Info added 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefy66 Posted July 17, 2021 Author Share Posted July 17, 2021 Small update been enjoying some sunshine and reading my new books so lack of plastic work been done. On the PM drawings I picked up that York has railings around the bridge platforms and only the top most platform should have solid sides the photos Jamie posted ref her black lower hull show this so removed the solid sides and added some spare rail this will be covered with tissue paper to represent the canvas dodgers used the plastic sides for rough shape before cutting them down.

Hi Steve sorry for late reply been away on holiday for a couple of weeks as Tom pointed out plans are from the link provided a few quid to purchase but you get a PDF file to keep on download and I managed to print them on a larger printer to A3 size in 4 sections to read them clearly. The PE sets are a mix of Eduard and WEM for Exeter I was planning on doing YORK out of the box but I managed to get the INFINI set for EXETER at a great deal so thought I could use most of the other sets for this one. You know when you have them bright ideas. On 7/31/2021 at 11:23 PM, Bugle07 said: Very nice (jammy) dodgers Beefy.

Somewhere - hopefully lost - is a video of a certain young nipper, let's call them Cpt Lord D'Univers, bawling their eyes out in fear as one of these behemoths came from nowhere, over a hill, and flew so low over the airfield (Duxford?) it felt like you could touch it and so loud you could taste it. That sound though. York is lookin' good too. David 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefy66 Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 Well not a lot of progress to knackered after start up at work but the big boy's have been again with not going to any shows for nearly 2 year my pocket money is bursting out of the piggy bank so treated myself to these two kits from Atlantic Models and some PE for a very old kit I have had for a while. Might give York a bit of a break it is starting to become a slog so might pick a little one for now to get the old inspiration going.

S-boat 55 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) That's an old kit of royal sovereign, it's one my father had or still has if he's been able to hide it in the loft! The R class really do deserve a revisit by the injection mould companies in 1:350 this time Edited August 18, 2021 by S-boat 55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantGoodale Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I have built the Royal Sovereign but converted to the Royal Oak. These are old molds (Frog I think). They are crude but not too expensive. Can be built into a nice model with a little TLC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry1954 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I hadn't realised the Type 12 had been released Beefy. One for my "to buy" list! That Royal Sovereign will be a nice challenge, and I reckon the etch set will lift it into a class (and scale) of its own. Terry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I seem to have been ignoring this, no excuses other than a mistaken belief I had been following it but all was new & not a like to be seen, hmmm, make of that what you will. Your York is looking good & just when I catch up, you take a break on it claiming fatigue & then go off to tackle resin things or prehistoric plastic battleships. Hmmm, I'll make of it what I can but I'll need to pay more attention. I'll try to hang in here. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefy66 Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 Thanks gent,s when I get round to the R class it will be done as HMS Resolution as following my trend of ships built on the river Tyne 10 hours ago, Terry1954 said: I hadn't realised the Type 12 had been released Beefy.

Steve my apologies and thanks for the likes but your comments have made me feel all guilty about saying I was thinking of having a break and being fatigued there are far more people who have greater problems than I do you just made it sound like I was getting a right royal rollicking from my old school Headmaster very sorry Sir.
