Airfix 1:600 HMS Hood
My latest WW2 airfix ship was finished yesterday, this time of the battlecruiser HMS Hood as usual in 1:600 scale. The Hood of course was famously sunk by the German battleship Bismarck at the battle of the Denmark Strait. It's a good kit with only a bit of flash and went together well. I even managed to get the little boats hanging off the side to work this time as well. Another feature I liked was that the hull was marked where the black line should be, which made painting much easier and produced a better result.
Below is a size comparission pic showing the difference between the Hood and the Queen Elizabeth class Battleship HMS Warspite. I knew the Hood was bigger than the Queen Elizabeth class ships, but wasn't expecting the kit to be quite as big as it was.
