In need of a small Great-War era destroyer for a forthcoming game, I decided to build one in 'cartoon' scale from bits and pieces.
The hull and most of the superstructure were carved from balsa. The funnel and torpedo tubes are plastic tube, turret and TT mounts pdf bases. I'm particularly pleased with the bridge - part of a mounting from a roller blind which 'looked useful' and ended up in the spares box some years ago.
The turrets are resin castings I bought a few years ago - again, they 'looked useful...' The crew figures are from a Strelets 1/72 set of Crimean War Russian naval gunners. Finished in overall black, here is it wearing the first of no doubt many flags of convenience! It's combat debut will be later this month in a game set in 1939.
