Stunning! Detail level is amazing.....I believe I can see the Captains coffee mug on the bridge.

Awesome display my friend!

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT

--and so swift!...

tight and crisp modelmaking--as ever!!!

thoroughly sharp throughout !!

Howsabout a waterline model for your next project....?

Incidentally guys--do not be misled by the apperent small displayed size of the images...!!

The photos are of high quality !

if you click and hold CTRL and click + then the images will display as large as you like until it fills the screen without major quality loss!

Roger--I hope you will send some photos to add to the permanent gallery

1st - thanks for the link Grandad!
2nd - Sorry Jim but if you enlarge small image you do get quality loss. And, even if you do enlarge them, you still can only save them in their original format unless you make a screen shot

Photos on Grandad's site are about twice as large as those one here

Roger,

It is an excellent model - one of the best I have seen.

Ships of this period are fascinating - still a lot of carryover from the sailing navy and just a hint of things to come. The only ship of this period I have visited is the IJN Mikasa in Yokosuka, Japan. It was built in England and is a bit more advanced than the Anson (enclosed turrets), but the layout is about the same. Wooden decks and open bridge. A compass and binoculars were all the bridge equipment available. Below was the wireless room - the latest high tech wonder!

Thanks for sharing this with us.

Phil
