LOTS!

And all small but perfectly formed.

Here are the 2 A Class ones, just need the sea painting.

HMS Nelson, this is the Tamiya kit, again very cheap, but it is a little dated (1974 is printed on the base), this is a re-pressing, and it is starting to lose some of the crispness that is expected from Tamiya.
The sea is still to do and the rigging. As always how much to rig. Some people go to town, but I think it overshadows these smaller scale models.

Excellent.

Almost there, sea finished, funnel painted, some shading and highlighting, the boats are still to do.
Then maybe C class and D class destroyers, but HMS Rodney is also lurking in the stash!

Nicely done Dave.
Be interesting to see the Rodney with the Nelson.

There are afew difference even though they were the same class of ship.

The Rodney being built.

A C Class destroyer, another conversion.

1 1:700 Spitfire,
Compared to a 1:72 one.

Nice work Dave.
Interesting to see the size comparison of the Spitfires.

Rodney based and the sea being added. Next to Nelson.

C class, rails added, [painted and based.

Very nice Dave.
