Hello everyone, Here is the start of my build of HMS Chiddingfold for Gremir Models. I have finished the main hull and about to start adding details. This has been a great build so far and the fit and finish are wonderful. This is also my first attempt at placing photos since the switch so...

Hugh, in addition to those check out the links section at the top of the site. Just be ready to spend a few hours browsing. Glen

Possibly the little roundy part above the deck line where the military mast is supposed to be...Isn't there going to be a chart house in that spot?

Hi again Everyone, After a bout with the flu and some family matters (children, automobiles, slick roads, buying another car...) more of the detail is finished. Only a few parts to go!

Christoph, I was wondering about dust getting in the holes over time and sticking to the glue on the tape, if that is just transparent tape. Could you perhaps run a small band of clear foil over the holes and then the tape to secure?

Hello everyone, Here is a little more progress on the Glowworm. Not much farther to go but all VERY small parts! Fun none the less. Here are a couple of shots.

Christoph, Wonderful work, I hope to employ some of your techniques on my next project. Thank you for all of your efforts in this thread! Glen

Hello Everyone, I wanted to post some progress pictures, but when you are adding details it is hard to see what has changed. I decided just on 3 generic views, I hope that sits well with everyone. I have completed a second lifeboat and installed it. There are also some cranes and such. If...

Erick, Beautiful work. Very clean build. Watching with interest!

Hello Christoph, I want to congratulate you on your model! I only hope that my attempt ends up somewhere close to your abilities. After watching your works come together I went as far as to order the photo etch parts. I am glad to have this thread for reference. Wonderful work and I look...

Oops, forgot to include a shot of the Motor Launch. But hey, that means more pictures doesn't it?

Hello all, Well all of the guns are finished and installed, now on to the finer bits. The forward deck is almost fitted out as well. Back to the microscope...

I am honored! I'm not sure I have been used as a good example in some time! :) Anyway, thank you both. As far as the tubes are concerned, everything is a universal battleship gray. I'm sure it has to do with the flash. I was also lucky enough to find a pen with a gray to match the color...

Hello again everyone, I have finished the second torpedo assembly and placed it on the deck. I have also finished a number of smaller pieces here and there. Here are a couple of shots of the progress. Hope to have more this evening. I also want to send out a belated thanks for all of the...

And in honor of wrapping to yet another page, another view of the front of a finished gun.

Man, this is a tough room! :D Ok, I can take a hint... Here is the "A" gun I believe and then it's proper location on the forward deck. Feels better just having it there doesn't it? Oh, alright, enough foolishness... the Photos.

Hello again everyone, Sorry for the delay in posting, house guests... Well here you are, she is finally armed! Aside from the torpedo array of course. I think the main guns look a bit smallish for a warship, but that's just me. :) Anyway here is the long awaited photo. More soon!

And one more cause I'm just so darn happy with the way it looks. Glen

Hello all, As requested here is the last deck house built and installed. I will be moving on to the guns next I promise. I hope this will keep the die hards of you out there in sufficent photo induced bliss until the next set! Glen :D

Here is a close up of the torpedo assembly...
