    I was contacted last week are regarding a HMS Vanguard . So I am hoping to hear soon regarding shipping costs . I am looking forward to building the Vanguard to round out my British mini fleet. Currently Hood is under construction followed by Nelson and Prince of Wales. Erebus will be refitted after that.

    This should bring my fleet count up to 37 .

    I think you will give the Canadian Navy a run for its money if you keep acquiring ships.... LOL.
    You do amazing work on each of your ships and I'm a little envious!
    Retirement is coming soon for me, so I plan to spend more time on my past/ present builds to add more detail.
    Please post photos of your build.

    Lol yeah and I'm not finished yet. I am in process of catching up on the builds.
    Missouri was retrofitted to 1991 version. Hood is 3/4 complete. Arizona is being built. Dunkerque and Richilieu and Tirpitz are progressing. Nelson should be done by June. I have another Bismarck being built. Vanguard arrived recently so that will be started this year.
