    Hms Cornwall 1/350

    So as i have a new modelling room and a new desk its time to for my first build in there. Something that should be pretty straight forward,trumpeters 1/350 hms cornwall. Looks to be nicely moulded and comes with some etch parts.
    Have started with drilling out the portholes in the hull and fitted the deck which is a nice fit.

      A nice choice to christen the new modelling room.

        Another floaty thing.....only ever made two, both in my youf. The venerable Airfix HMS Belfast and British wartime air/sea rescue launch of some sort.

        Good luck with the build.

          Glad to have you aboard Bob but the only thing youll learn from me is how quickly i can turn a 1600ร—800mm bench into an A4 size workspace lol

                            Those latest updates are amazing. Those steps must have taken a lot work!

                            I used to be an out and out armour man when I'm came back to the hobby....I had a couple of planes but in the past year or so planes have taken over!

                            Keep up the great work.
