HMS Intrepid complete, view of landing craft especially for Chris H.
Intrepid and Fearless together.

I said to Tracy how I'd told you about the Fearless tale. She laughed and said it was Kiri 33yrs ago and even how on a warship natural things happen and mother nature takes over.

This is a Hecla Class Survey/Hospital ship.
Three of this class went to the Falklands, HMS Hecla, HMS Herald and HMS Hectate.
Will I build three or just one?

Scratch built.

I wouldn't be surprised if three don't appear from the Bempton dockyards.

The Hospital ship has been undercoated.

Meanwhile, I have made a start on HMS Andromeda, a Leander Class Frigate from Starling models, lots of tiny 3D printed parts and etched brass.
The progress, so far.
