My first thought was "a 1/72 scale ship; pretty big."
Like you, dave, I'm not a subscriber, but here's a 1/96 scale for you.

That's a great looking model Mike.. lots of detail too The Counties were by far the prettiest ships I ever served on.

Couldn't see if the 'wire' aerials between the fwd and main mast were copper.. they looked black but that could have been the shot. That was one of my jobs on Norfolk.. I/C Aerials

This is fffaaaarrrrr toooo much to pay! £525 for something that unfinished is just plain daft! http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/RadioControll ... ms+Norfolk
Sadly it's also the 'wrong' HMS Norfolk

Yes indeed. That HMS Diamond is a cracker though

Yes mate That'd cut a fine picture cruising down the canal at 30kts. Unfortunately.. SWMBO would kill me long before it got near any more water

It's a belter and I want it!
