HMS Iron Duke

Airfix Iron Duke, my first 1/600 kit, might be middle age creeping up on me it was a fiddly build but quite enjoyable. The grey is too light I think unless she on tropical duty somewhere.

This is the kit that started me off! My Dad bought it when I was 10 or 12 and started to build it, but lost interest half way thru, so I finished it myself. Made a horrible mess, I suspect, but I've never looked back. Those lines are quite distinctive.

Nice build

Looking very good. i've got one in my stache but don't think I can do it as well as you have.

I'm well past middle age , so i'm in to 1/500 or greater nowadays due to eye sight. My next project is an eastern express tiger, hasewaga vanguard and a brace of frog undine/ torquay builds. Wish me luck coming back to kit building after 20n years....
