I have seen video and photo of attacks on ships where it looks like hundreds of planes were involved i am trying to show that in a very small way.

Done loads to it tonight, not posting pics cause it doesn't look like I've done a lot (its all tiny stuff you can hardly see) I am going crosseyed. On the chains for the anchors, where they slide up and down the long slipways would the paint have worn off and would rust then result (I don't know what you call those bits so can't Google pics).

You do not want to weather RN ships too much. Looking at pictures of RN ships the weathering seems more on the dirty side with a smattering of rust by the anchors, but what you have done looks good.

looking good Ken, do like it, ;)

maybe you could give it a couple of washes with a lite rust, just to get in the nooks and crannies

that pe work is superb,:rolleyes:

it is looking well Ken , as Graham says you don't want to overkill with the weathering ,anchor chains and chain slips is were I would put any rust , it is looking very atmospheric .

Hi guys and gals just a quick question, re the aircraft guns at 1/350 would the damage they do to the deck of the Warspite be noticeable, if so how much damage would they do (I assume apart from removing a bit of paint they wouldn't do any damage to the superstructure) if the damage did show, on a run along the deck of the ship how far apart would the hits be.
