Title: Revell - Patrol Gunboat - USS Defiance
Post by: zak on May 13, 2013, 08:32:03 AM

What a strange scale 1:131, maybe that's how it fitted the box.
Saw this in Croppers and just had to have my fix of plastic - is it the feel the smell or what?
Please note that no brass was harmed in the building of this kit.
The railings are stretched sprue.

Nice looking model Dave, lucky you with stretched sprue, mine always ends up looking like spaghetti Bolognese!!
