Admiral Graf Spee Spithead Review

Post  The Ships Cat on Fri Oct 07, 2011 9:56 pm

Hi everyone. Here is my Graf Spee as seen at Spithead with the oversized fag at the stern.
It has yet to be rigged as a lot of my others of this scale but like other things I'll get there eventually.
Hope you enjoy.

Hi Colin. Have a chance to write now, parents have gone back home.
They are indeed 1/700th though my very dark HMS Hood is the really great Italeri 1/720th (My great experiment when I have done the base for it)
The Hood is Trumpey's 1931 version with the Fairey 3F though going to cross kit and do the Spithead one and eventually the Spanish Civil War patrol along with another Spee of the same date.
Eventually I want to do the Hood in all guises including the KGV style tower etc.

I haven't got the DVD but will look out for it on flea-bay. I have a couple of bits from You tube though not good quality.

Glad you like them, I'll post more up when I'm off my sailing ship marathon.
Regards,
