Because I so enjoyed building the 1939 version of the Exeter ,I decided to have a go at converting the kit to her final configuration.I used Profile Morksie plans and other sources of information.This is the result.It was sold to a chap who was doing a talk at Oxford University on the looting of wrecks in Far East.

Regards Phil

Superb build, Phil, thanks!

I wish you could also make some pics of the details where you made the modifications...
