What a rare and beautiful subject! RN ships are usually so elegant looking and sported some of the most striking camouflage patterns of any navy.

Send us more!

Love the camo job Peter! Well done.


Bob Pink.

Well executed Peter!... the rigging is amazing!

Frank

Amazing Peter, absolutely amazing. I agree, the camo is too cool for school.

Where in East Anglia are you?

Beautiful work Peter.

As always, another masterpiece by the master!

She´s a little beauty and its interesting that the colourscheme matches the scemes used on British tanks used in the desert - "one colour fits all"

Cheers/Jan

Yes Jan, I hadn't thought of that, you're right. So, who's idea was it first or was there a bit of coordination. Probably a good paint salesman who had a job lot of sky blue, and taub.

Thanks for the nice comments, guys - always a pleasure.

Acually, Eric I'm not in E Anglia but Kent and Sussex. I don't know how the wrong location got into the mix. I'll have to inform the management.

And so, back to Averoff!

Cheers,

Hey that's a pretty nice one Peter, I just love the cammo and the way it contrasts with the dark sea,
another one of your lovely works -and then that rigging!!
i would get mad trying to do half of it

Hey Peter!

Another great model from Fulgoney's ShipYard!
As usual you have done an excellent work with the camouflage job, excellent rigging and good mood/balance of crew aboard the ship.
A winner!
It's good to see that you are able to split attention between Averoff and other projects, keeping the focus.


Rui

Thank you shipmates, and looking back over my last 4 builds, they are all camo. Am I stuck in a rut?

The Danae, Rui, was for Telford and was agreed with the guys that we would all build cruisers. I am now exclusively working on Averoff. It may look very advanced but the smaller detail takes longer than placing the funnels and gun turrets combined, and there's a lot of it still to do.

Cheers, guys.

I missed this one first time around.. awesome job as usual, both ship and water...thanks for sharing!
