Wow, flawless execution. Hard to believe that's 1/700. You have a good eye and a steady hand, sir. Bravo.

Outstanding! What were your references? I haven't seen much in the way of references or pictures of Agincourt around Jutland timing

Thank you Greg, Steve and JC!

regarding references of changes made to the ship in time:

- The British Battleship 1906-1946, by Norman Friedman
- British Battleships of World War One, by R A Burt

there are like 3 photographs that I think are from that time.

I also used the Iron Shipwrights HMS Agincourt in 1/350 as reference. Of course my model is not 100% accurate, but well...

This is a beautiful model. Just flawless in execution. You got the colours, the shading and the small details just right. The fine photographs do the kit justice. It's a pity that at this year's Mosonshow this gem was hidden in a shady place and one really had to pay attention to recognise its qualities. I always thought it to be a little unfair to put 1/700 models next to 1/350 battleships at model shows - they inevitably steel the show from otherwise very attractive models.
