    HIJNS Agano

    A light cruiser/destroyer flottila leader Built around 1942 6 inch guns looks more like a Leander class RN cruiser than the normal Japanese designs. A fairly simple model the underwater hull has an 80 gsm and a 140 gsm layer the double skinned hull allows for pretty good gluing surfaces.

    HMS Starling 1/200 Black Swan class sloop 1944

    I am sorry I have been having internet troubles and I missed your post. I always leave my models unlocked so it is relatively easy to modify them. I started using CAD around 2005 and with a lot of help from from a few friends finally learnt enough to design ships. If you just want to do...

    HMS Starling 1/200 Black Swan class sloop 1944

    Rigging Thanks Nowhere The rigging is very simple in real life and I am afraid I had to make it even more simple from steel wire. My fingers just can't perform well enough to add the extras. I used superglue to glue the lines it worked quite well.
