There doesn't seem to be a Discussion Group for Cruiser Campaign! Nevertheless, here is my submission - Flyhawk 1/700 HMS Naiad. Out of box build.

Said it before but worth it again....well done Biggs!! Great looking build and fantastic work on the base.

I was thinking there is no discussion group on the campaign other than the proposal thread probably because the campaign does not start until August...but would not be the first time I was wrong.

Ya Biggles, you jumped the gun but Naiad came out great. I especially like the action made by the working stacks, I can really feel her steaming full speed ahead.

Cool model.

Hi Biggles,

Great job on the Naiad,

The discussion is still on the Cruiser Campaign Proposal Thread, Will start a new thread on 1st August when the campaign officially opens.

Cheers Si

Fantastic build.
I like the smoke, that's something I had never thought of adding. It really does add to the impression of movement. How did you do it?

Indeed. A lovely looking display!

I'd like to know that, too!
