Title: 1/350 River Class Frigate Royal Canadian Navy............(Completed 25 Feb 2017)
Post by: lastvautour on January 12, 2017, 10:17:01 PM
The River Class was started a few years ago and is finally back on the bench. The hull is completed and the upper structure is being shaped.  The RCN heavily modified the River Class to make the Prestonion Class. I also used the River Class drawing when I made the HMCS Lanark. http://smm.solidmodelmemories.net/SMF/index.php?topic=1069.0  Photos to follow.

Had to scrap upper structure and start again. Some railing has been attached and I lost one gun. So one step forward two steps back.
