Started for the "In the Navy" GB... still going (strong?). Pretty much completed build.  Awaiting painting up in hull red, white and ochre of early 1900s peace time navies. Because camouflaging a land ship is just pointless.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Does it have lifeboats? A couple of Land-Rovers in davits would look good.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Blimey, it looks much larger. Superbly done anyway.

Seadude got 1/350 Landcruisers & Humvees for his hospital ship.  I think he got them from shape ways.  As its 3d printing they might be able to upscale something to 1/250 for you.

Lots of white metal Land Rovers in 1/200 or 1/300 if you look at various wargames online shops. I think GHQ in the U.S. is 1/285 ?

First few coats of paint. I'm going for an early 1900s peace time warship look.

Isn't that what the TOG II* was supposed to be, instead of the scaled down test model? :wacko:
