Hey guys fancy having my first shot at scratchbuilding and maybe making an rc boat in a large scale.
I want to try and make an ww2 rn destroyer. Something along the lines of tribal, j, k, n class.
Ive had a look at the sites listed in the stickys but i cant find any plans for these ships. Can someone please help ?
cheers

John Lambert has some below.
Many where used in Christopher Langtree's the Kelly's book, I also can reccomend John he's good value for money, swift and will help where he can:-

Thats about the best value I can reccomend unless you have top money and wish to go to the NMM and order from them?

Hallo Fil,
I have ordered plans of K , N , class destroyers at National Maritime Museun , Greenwich Londen . These plans came in scale 1/48 .
There are 9 plans of HMS Kelly 1938 , and 6 plans of HMS Napier 1941.
As I have mentioned before these plans do not come cheap , but are worhth every penny.
Regards,
Ludwig

kewl
good luck in finding the plans you need
i have the ribs cut for a dutch "admiralen" class destroyer (like the ones that fought in the battle of the java sea) and as mine will be in 1/144 scale it will be tiny but armed
i suggest finding a size and handy scale before starting on a destroyer starting on a tribal in 1/48 may lead to getting a stretched Mini to transport it.
Profile Morskie has a heap of destroyers including a Tribal, several o class and french,american,a dutch, and a japanese destroyer.
you can find them online thru Google
good luck
