Hi,
Just out of idle curiosity, does anybody actually manufacture a model of HMS Dreadnought?
Cheers

Rhino Models also made a 1/350 HMS Dreadnought. It's currently out of production, but Iron Shipwright has acquired the molds and plans to re-release it this summer.

The Combrig offering is a great model, resin with P.E. details, you will have to replace the resin masts with brass rod.

This is what can be done with the kit. Mr. Hanchang Kuo has worked magic on his.
