The B Team

Newly completed in South Yorkshire's famous inland shipyard, these four Imperial German Navy destroyers are all of the catchily-named 'B' Class.  To be precise B.97. 98, 109 and 110.  All are Mick Yarrow metal castings with masts added from florists wire.

    How kind! I think of them as TBD - Teutonically brutal and dreadfully painted.

    My eyes are 51 - I can't look at anything too closely.

    Good point. My eyes are a bit dodgy too. For all I know my painting could be fabulous!

    Have another glass of red wine - they'll look even better.

    Those look really good Tim!

    So has that crafty Kaiser and his beastly cohorts got some nefarious, dastardly and diabolical plan for them? One that will become only too obvious in the coming weeks..?
