Great job Ryan! I'm guessing she'll make an appearance at the next Fall Show?

Hello from Richmond, BC!

Excellent work on a proud ship so far. Are you going to carve out the bridge windows or glue on blue panels that look like windows?

Also, may I ask what colours you used for your paint scheme? I was considering turning Revell's 1/244 HMS Campbelton kit into one of the Canadian 4-stackers such as HMCS Columbia, but was unsure what colours were used in the past schemes of various RCN ships pictured on the Hazegray.org site.

Built the St Croix using the Bluejacket Shipcrafters solid wood hull and sheet styrene for all deck structures. The fittings are from JR Haynes and the 4 stacks are made from ABS tube. No plans of St Croix were available but used the generic set from the kit and a few photos of the St Croix. I did take some in progress photos, but forgot to do an online build. She is built as seen prior to her sinking in '43.Thanks for looking
