HMS Warspite...

Just a few notes...This Diorama is about HMS Warspite entering the Grand Harbour in Malta 1943...The Ship was extensively detailed ...the tugs ...Adniralty paddle tug ‘Ancient’ and the Navy Rescue tug ‘Respond’ were totally scratbuilt as well as the breakwater and the rest.

Best regards and God Bless

What an excellent setting for such wonderful models! Malta has some of the most interesting and distinctive shoreside architecture anywhere in the world and I'm delighted Louis has incorporated some of the scenery in this project. --Karl

This is outstanding work, again the weathering is spot on and so much time and effort paid to attention to make this yet another masterpiece, my only niggle would be, there's no back drop, may a suggest a sheet of hardboard and cloud wallpaper
