A series of 1:350 British capital ships from the Great War in time for the Centennial would be a brilliant idea! It's logical to start with the Dreadnought herself.

Hats off to Zvezda!

interesting subject. I agree, it would be nice to get more pre and WW1 era ships in plastic 350 scale. Of course, i still have yet to get one of the Kaiser class BBs in the stash , but it is under consideration.
