Awesome Kostas !  It really blew me away with the last photo with the lighter to show scale/size.
I had to check out the subject when I saw the name, HMS Barham. As Barham is my last name. So, I am related to a heavy cruiser 
   
 
Thank you again Kostas for sharing your fine work and a future research project about my last name.

Seeing the BIC lighter next to it makes it all the more impressive. I expected a larger model with that much detail on the water.

Thanks for another wonderful model and for bringing the history of a (to me) previously unkown battleship to my attention! The film of her sinking is both shocking and fascinating.

Tom,
you are actually 'related' to a Queen Elizabeth Class Battleship!
A bit better than a heavy cruiser?
