wow is the word for it , just amazing build,

[Guest]

WOW definitely but isn't it HMS Eagle rather than HMS Duke of York ?

I was wondering that as well Jeff. DofY was a battle ship and it does say eagle on the stern.....Never the less that is a wicked model. Wouldn't mind that in the RC pond...

Thanks for posting Catalin, I can't imagine the number of hours put into that model and all the Aircraft. Do they have a model of the WWII Battleship HMS King George V? Cheers Derek

P.S. You can see Eagle on the stern photo.

Hi Catalin, if you have any photos of the Battleship HMS King George V, I would appreciate it if you would post them. Thanks Derek
