HMS Tiger

Post by Niall Counihan »

Hi Shipmates

I am new on this site

Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of the plans for WW1 HMS Tiger?

I am presently constructing a scratch built model of HMS Dreadnought

Pics will be down loaded later

I have a GA drawing overhead and side elevation I can e-mail you- along with a few helpful photos.

As for proper plans--I would suggest the NMM at Greenwich London--

Dreadnought eh-what scale?

-look forward to seeing pics of that ship!!

Hi Neil How did you get on with your search for plans of Tiger?
I am building her as commissioned, at 1:96 from Admiralty drawings I bought from National Maritime Museum. They are the "to be built" drawings and need some work to bring them up to "as built"
