Default HMS Starling 1/200 A/S sloop Black Swan class

First did this one several years ago and could not get it right so I came back for another try.This time as a full hull with the option to build a waterline mode. I love this one because it is a pugnacious looking ship actually credited with sinking more subs than any other ship in the RN in WW2.

I also love the lines, the angle of the surround on the second gun looks really nice must say

Default Details

As the details get smaller I get slower davits, small motor boat, bollards, cleats and some more on the bridge

the encouragement is most welcome chaps it's getting wearing as you get to this stage
