Ahoy Shipmates!!!

Peter Fulgoney shares with us another great build. This time he brings us the HMS Burdock as she looked in 1941.

Great job, and a very interesting color scheme. Always amazed how much detail can be crammed into such a small model. Al

Talk about a tiny subject! Employing such a vibrant camo scheme probably helped make the model stand out on the accurate sea base as well!

Cracking build Peter, the depth charge explosion looks really convincing.

Would love to see a good flower in 1/350th as well.

Thanks, guys, this is one I build while working in Gloucester hence the small subject. I would build 350 scale only everthing else I have is in 700, and I have no room left in my house indeed for any build! Perhaps time to start selling them?
